Ya that could throw of the y-axis (north/south) of the shadow, but the x-axis (east/west) would be unaffected.
Anyway, forget the sundial thing. Just focus on local aparent noon, that is when the sun is highest in the sky at your given longitude on earth. If the globe earth is on a 23.4° tilt, then the spring and fall equinox would cast shadows at noon in radically different directions. The winter and summer solstice would both cast shadows directly north (or south depending on latitude), though the length of the shadow would be different. Just play around with a globe and a light source and think about that, the geometry seem very clear to me.
I've watched that series, very entertaining heavy stuff!
I clearly can not 'ignore' the sun dial and it's position in relation to the light source, when it is the entire premise your thread and arguments are based on. Ignore the sun dial, look at t he shadows? Makes no sense.
As I've said before in my other reply. Don't pay attention to the sun, look to the stars.
Watched that entire 5 hour video you did? Did that happen in the last 2 hours since I posted it?

Such an unfounded and meaningless statement. Allow me such hollow parlance in return.
The righteousness of being good is very apparent to me.

Meaningless.
I watched that video months ago, I've known about that guy for a while.
I think you didn't even read my last comment, I was trying to simplify things since you had a problem with these pictures.
Right.
