Underground temperatures as indicators of surface temperatures – part 1 Posted by Ari Jokimäki on February 28, 2010
Particularly:
When surface temperature changes, the change is seen immediately in the soil that is in direct contact with the surface. The temperature changes in surface soil are being transferred deeper by heat conduction. Therefore the deeper ground shows the same temperature change as the surface, but in later time.(lagging-tectak)
and:
From the measurements it has been found out that daily variation of surface temperature can be seen in the depth of 2 meters and annual variation of surface temperature can be seen in the depth of 20 meters. Rapid temperature changes are therefore not conveyed very deep so the temperature reconstructions from boreholes don’t show rapid temperature changes, but they show how the temperature has varied during decades and centuries.
and finally, though I know you know, it is not that the night/dawn cycle gets faster....it is that time speeds up for our long dead "observers". One year becomes one day. 365 revs in 24hrs works out at 0.25 rpm. Not exactly blurring but blinking just might do...4 minute traffic lights?:D

All relativity my dear boy,relativity.
So there.:P
