As we approach Groundhogs Day, I began to think why do we focus so much on the tradition of pulling a groundhog out of his warm burrow only to see if he sees his shadow? Of course you know the tradition-. Do we really believe groundhogs can predict the weather? According to an old English song:. Have some fun with shadows! Eratosth...
