A slightly more sophisticated analysis

Of a a missing sense of direction in the Southern Hemisphere.

It is simplistic to ascribe the entirety of one's sense of direction to sunshine and shadows, though that certainly plays a role. My new theory applies that principle, but with the stipulation that one must have lost one's bearings (e.g., by taking the subway and regaining the surface (and therefore sunlight and shadows) from a different angle).

I did not get lost in Jogja, and in fact have the city (at least a large portion of the area encircled by the inner ring road) mapped out quite nicely.
