Happy New Year -- from Zeta!?!

OK !

This is what I think...

What do you think the reaction would be of any "General Public' dude in Florida (or elsewhere) whose house is completely destroyed by a hurricane... "Oh! I almost made it... it was the last Hurricane In the 2005 season !" or ..."Damn it , I'm really a loser... it was the first Hurricane in the 2006 season" I rather belive he'd be muttering King Crimson's song Epitapth (In the court of the Crimson King) which dates from back in1969 and goes llike this...

The wall on which the prophets wrote
Is cracking at the seams.
Upon the instruments of death
The sunlight brightly gleams.
When every man is torn apart
With nightmares and with dreams,
Will no one lay the laurel wreath
When silence drowns the screams.

Confusion will be my epitaph.
As I crawl a cracked and broken path
If we make it we can all sit back
and laugh.
But I fear tomorrow I'll be crying,
Yes I fear tomorrow I'll be crying.

Between the iron gates of fate,
The seeds of time were sown,
And watered by the deeds of those
Who know and who are known;
Knowledge is a deadly friend
If no one sets the rules.
The fate of all mankind I see
Is in the hands of fools.

The wall on which the prophets wrote
Is cracking at the seams.
Upon the instruments of death
The sunlight brightly gleams.
When every man is torn apart
With nightmares and with dreams,
Will no one lay the laurel wreath
When silence drowns the screams.

Confusion will be my epitaph.
As I crawl a cracked and broken path
If we make it we can all sit back
and laugh.
But I fear tomorrow I'll be crying,
Yes I fear tomorrow I'll be crying.

So.... all what I want to say is this... they'll be confused anyways... no matter what the calendar is !

What I was talking about when I mentioned Vernal Equinox was the "Natural Cycle" of Hurricanes, it was not about what the "General Public" would feel. Mind you.... Hurricanes don't give a damN about the General Public. ... And so does the General Public... They only wish "'em damned hurrincanes will finally give us a break!!! "

So I suggest that we "cut down to size" like the Brits say, and separate what the General Public "think" (like the 3,000 missing in Nicaragua after the mudslide created by Hurricane Stan) and what regards Climatologic Events such as a "Hurricane Season".

Nothing personal.... Consider it the European way of seeing things.
