Holy Hell, dude! You just proved my point. Show me that part where they should face north again.
I guess you didn't notice,that was talking about the Austin area,which is a looong way north of the border ,and considerably shorter summer. Geographical position on Earth has everything to do with the angle of the sun and stars,and also the length of daylight hours. For instance: Today I woke up in Detroit Michigan,it was getting daylight at 4:30am Eastern time,it wasn't completely dark until almost 10Pm.This time of year, the farther north you go, the longer the days are,because of the tilt of The Earth,in relation to The Sun.
Have you never noticed the difference while driving West to East? Winter vs. Summer?

Look...one last lime. In the northern hemisphere at or above the 25th parallel, only the pitch of the panel is effected by latitude, not orientation. I can only give you the facts. I can't make you understand them. The Earth's tilt right now is only 23.5 degrees. It would have to be 45 degrees or greater for what you're proposing and then that would only work at latitudes 45N and above. The border is from 22N to 25N.
The end.
The end.
