Hmm. That joke didn't work very well, did it? Or did it? Am I such a hemispherist that I even forgot that "winter" up north is something else down south?

Perhaps it would have worked better if it had gone something like: "I think of July as summer and December as Winter."

I got closer to a lot of those than I though I would. When I missed it was thinking something was on when it was just north or south or just north or south when it was on.
