Yes, there are people who know Norway as the country where “the sun never sets.”  And that is true of the northern part of the country in mid-summer.

However, most people with elementary school educations understand that all regions of the world at extreme latitudes are just as dark in their winters as they are sun-lit in their summers.

I recently met a guy from northern Norway (300 miles above the arctic circle) who mentioned that he has 67 days of complete darkness in winter, which as anyone with any sense would grant, is disconcerting.

But how much worse is it than his neighbors’ mowing their lawns at 2:30 AM in the summer?
