Most of us probably know this, but I still celebrate this day as the beginning of my new year living in the Northern Hemisphere. Take care, Bill

Oh yes, here in the south of Finland, near Helsinki, the sun comes up at about 9:24 AM already, and doesn't set until 3:13 PM or so, so if it weren't for those gray clouds giving us that chilly wet stuff, we'd have 5 hours 49 minutes of almost spring-like sunshine! May's just around the corner!-Seb |

Here in the Northeastern US, Christmas Day is the first day that is a full minute longer. Hooray! |

I know the source of this is utterly disgusting for some, but look at it with the humor that was intended:December 19, 2008 American Thinker Something else for Al Gore to worry about (updated) Richard Strimple I don't know if anyone else has noticed, but I have detected a new crisis that I have named "the daylight change crisis". I first noticed it sometime around the end of June this year. I started paying attention and created computer models and sure enough I was right! We are losing daylight at an astonishing rate. Each day we are losing approximately 2 minutes of day light and my computer models predict total darkness by next July. I have been able to detect this phenomenon around the entire Northern Hemisphere. And here is the scary part: the day light appears to be leaking to the Southern Hemisphere. I thought I should bring it to the attention of great scientists like Al Gore so he can help solve this new crisis. Update: Important new data reveals that the serious environmental consequences of daylight change have already begun. |

FYI if anybody cares about how many more seconds/minutes of daylight tomorrow is going to be, my home page is Weather Underground and the astronomical area provides the info. |
