Compass reading from a watch...man I remember that old trick...
but I cant remember how to do it ;-(
I took an outdoors class my senior year of high school. I loved it. We did canoe safety, campfire cooking, orienteering.
And the teacher showed us that watch trick. He even showed us how to use a compass as a sun dial to get the time.

Wish I could find my notes

I had considered putting that trick in the compass tutorial but finally nixed the idea figuring most people were wearing digital watches and it wouldn't work. I guess that's not really true, though, is it? I might have to update it with that little parlor trick one of these days. =)

Hilarious!!!
I love it when people can keep things in perspective and laugh about things that are normally taboo to laugh at.
