Completely unrelated: Does anyone know the official name of those old physical map devices that displayed the current solar terminator? Maybe it's just the extreme sleepdep, but my Google-fu is failing me utterly. Mostly I just want to know how unaffordable a used one would be.

Edit: They're called Geochrons. Thanks go to Internet Braintrust rep [livejournal.com profile] hollyking.

I think you are looking for one of these (http://www.officeclocks.com/cgi-bin/store/commerce.cgi?product=World_Clocks_Geochron).

And, yes, they are ridiculously expensive, even used. Oh well.
