... Bad Astronomy . ... I think I will break from my usual format of Bad Astronomy/ Good Astronomy by saying that the way we define seasons currently is not strictly bad, but I feel (in my opinion!) that it could be better.

Now imagine breaking up the Sun's 46 degree up-and-down yearly swing into 1 day intervals. ...
