Analemmas

I think the lines on a sundial should be long thin figure-eights.

If the moon has earthalemmas, what shape are they?

I wish moon inhabitants could use a sundial during the 2-week "day" and an earthdial during the 2-week "night", but sadly for my poetic notions, that wouldn't work at all. The Moon People threw away all their earthdials generations ago, cursing the slick salesman who had sold them. He lived out his life in bitter exile.

Oooo, that'd be a great companion piece! (And thanks! It's growing on me, too -- I have to keep getting it cut!)
