Winter starts Dec 21..
Well ok, I get your point, but I've never subscribed to that BS. If there's snow on the ground, I'm wearing a coat, and I'm running PDP-11s in the house for extra heat, it's friggin' winter, dammit.
If we want to be picky (and we always do), I'd say winter *peaks* on the solstice, since it's the darkest day of the year. I'd argue it's well underway by the official calendar start date. - Dave
