All right, added a non-circular definition. Actually, if you want to get persnickety about it, the sun is always to the south at noon only to an observer north of the Tropic of Cancer. - user:Montrealais
Well, only to the extent that all names are arbitrary, since the north is the left-hand side of an observer facing east, and the south is the left-hand side, and east has a definite meaning (the direction the sun rises in). It's not like left and right, the terms are defined in relation to something else. - user:Montrealais
