Happy Groundhog Day!

So it seems that there are conflicting reports as to whether the groundhog saw his shadow today. Apparently the official groundhog, Punxsutawney Phil of Groundhog Day fame, saw his shadow and thus predicted six more weeks of winter. But a rival Staten Island Zoo groundhog (more sensibly named Chuck), failed to see his shadow, predicting an early end to winter. That's what comes of having too many groundhogs, I guess.

There would be no groundhog-shadow-observing possible in the Bay area today, if people here were inclined to such things. It's pouring outside.
