It is comforting to know I am not alone in my CN lunacy. I walk out
the door at night and check for Orion’s belt, Sirius, Jupiter, the big dipper
etc....... All suddenly seems well.... it really is a somewhat strange
disorder.......but a lot of fun . Even with a new record amount of snow here, 90
inches in past 3 weeks, I see the sun move north every day .... spring
will come...even if this is the beginning of a new ice age at 42.3 N 71.8
W. What global warming....the temperature high for the day was about 15F.

I feel I am seen by some as one who meddles in the black arts, a druid mumbling to himself whilst handling mysterious objects, worshiping the sun and carrying undecipherable books of numbers under his arms. -Frank Atkins
Haha! I love it!
