I'm sure that no one above the age of ten actually thinks that a groundhog predicts the weather or has any bearing on how much snow we receive. Still, it's a great tradition that is offers one more aspect of how animals interplay with our lives, history, and culture (and one in which no animals are harmed - though not everyone agrees), so I'm all for it. Happy Groundhog Day - and see you in the (hopefully not-too-distant) spring!
