The winter of our discontent

Well, feckless Phil saw his shadow this morning, so we've got six more weeks of rain winter to look forward to.
If you're wondering whether anyone used the country's most notorious PR stunt as a platform to talk about other things, the answer is yes. Besides the mass of Pittsburgh Steeler fans, the National Environmental Trust was there, making a point of tying the whole thing to global warming. Fun-stoppers.
