01/23/2004: "Springtime in Alaska"

I don't usually write about the news, but today I heard something that will affect all of us, in the northern hemisphere, anyway. The sun came up today in Barrow, Alaska, for the first time since November 18. The days here have been getting noticeably longer, and even the longest night was quite a bit shorter than theirs. Today is another Shakespeare day ("Blow, blow, thou winter wind") and I hear snow is on the way again, and we've got another funeral tomorrow, but hey, the sun's out in Barrow.
