"Cutting up fowl to predict the future is, if done honestly and with as little interpretation as possible, a kind of randomization. But chicken guts are hard to read and invite flights of fancy or corruption." -- Ian Hacking

[Happy Groundhog Day! Fortunately today does not involve cutting up the groundhog, only (according to UD tradition) getting the groundhog drunk.]

[My father used to explain Groundhog Day thus: "If the groundhog sees his shadow, we'll have another month and a half of winter, but if he doesn't then we'll only have six more weeks of winter."]
