Winter begins in a couple of weeks, at the time we crossover and the solstice begins, you should be able to stand an egg up on it's end (see my avatar), this was done back in the spring. I nearly fell out of my chair. I started trying to stand it up about 5 minutes before the appointed time given by local radio station said we would cross, around 11:45 a.m when spring began this year. I would try to stand it up a couple of times, then wait for minute to pass, then try again. Sure enough, I stood it up, turned it loose and it stayed standing up. My daughter took the photo with her camera phone and uploaded to my computer. I went and got several folks in the office to come look, they thought it was pretty neat. One lady asked, "How long will it stay that way"? I said I didn't know, picked it up, laid it down and tried to stand it back up. Wouldn't work. I don't know how long it would have stayed if I hadn't messed with it, but I will try again in a couple of weeks. Try it for yourself.
