Re: seasons not 24/7?

The use of the word "vomitted" (which was intended to be amusing rather than offensive, so sorry if it did offend) was because of the way you seemed to have missed the point of my posting and instead were gleefully nitpicking my use of the farming example in an attempt to claim that I was being unscientific.

I might just as well have said "In other words you might trim your beard on the third day after the second full moon following the spring equinox." Would I then be subject to justifying whether ancient people wore beards or not? Also, please note my use of the word "might" in the above sentence (and in my original). That can hardly be construed as a statement that requires a rigorous scientific proof, or indeed any substantiation at all.

I hardly think I am "dodging the issue", since I don't believe there is an issue to dodge.

By the way. I don't believe in Father Christmas either.
