As I recall, you were the one who tried to "correct" me

You recall incorrectly. Read the thread. I said it was "very much a
matter of opinion" and that "I would say that winter is the calendar
months December, January and February". At no point have I said you
are "incorrect", just that the 'other' definition is in widespread use
and it's the one I prefer.

It was a beautiful spring day here today.

It wasn't a bad autumn day here -- except it was too friggin' hot
and *humid* after "raining" from 16:00 yesterday (8 Mar 2007) to about
09:00 AEST this morning for a miserable total of 26 points! :-(
[And could be more light rain about to arrive at 13:45 UTC 9th March
