Didnt you read the whole thread that was put up about it in EK ? That was just some email and forum spam that was going round.
There's no freaking way that a day can have 36 hours. The Earth has to spin slowly for that to happen.

This rumor appears to have come from India, so it means to say that the sun will rise for 36 hours over India, and the Americas will be dark for the same amount of time. Not that this makes the rumor any less nonsensical. The only way for this rumor to come true would be if the earth stopped rotating

As a country which is closer to the equator, this cannot happen. I think I mentioned that in that particular thread.

Something like that can happen to countries which are far away from the equator. As an example we (Australia) get the sunset at around 8.00 pm now, which will go upto until 9 - 9.30 pm towards December.

That e-mail message was a pure hoax from the begining it self. Basically any human who knows that our globe rotates in an eclipse and we are in the center of it, can understand the reality
