I'm a student of observation, numbers, statistics, the metrics of the day. It's why I'm constantly recording weather metrics, daylight hours and the such. It's amazing to watch as time progresses how the day increases in length, a measurable effect of our hurtling globe. When one considers the massive volume of the earth it makes you aware of just how small and fragile we are.
