Maybe you were being a bit pedantic.
Pedantic? You either don't know what pedantic means or are intentionally misusing it in an effort to avoid admitting you made a mistake. The word you should have used is revolves, not rotates. This is basic elementary school knowledge; hardly a pedantic...geez.
Holy crap, yes you were being picky. "Revolves" yadda yadda yadda. It revolves around the sun as it rotates on it's access.
