Well I just looked at my little sunrise and sunset chart and today's the
earliest we get sunset. From now it's getting later. The day length does

Very interesting. Is this true at all latitudes? It does seem unfair
that we get hopeful about daylight when the worst of cold weather is
still ahead. Who invented February anyhow?
