    Hopefully, this year WILL be a good year. I feel alot better after comeing across my persimmons. But still…just about everyone hear predicts a warmer then average winter. Its really discourageing, but that MIGHT be the reality.

    I know Rickster it is very discouraging, but that's how it is sometimes.  Science vs. Nature.  I'm for nature!  You are the closest too me so far that has open persimmons.  Where does Grandin live?  Ohio?  I'm in VA.  Sure wish FatherFrost find some.  I'm not sure what they look like.

    From what I can tell, they very from reigon to reigon. I'm not sure where Dan lives. I'm sure he resides somewhere in the Great Lakes area though, or something along those lines. I am for nature as well…TRUST ME.

    As do I.  Science isn't always correct about things.  Just like humans, computers can make mistakes (We invented them after all Wink).  For example, I remember a couple of years ago that the news was forecasting my area to have rain all day from mid-morning until the evening, and over half of the modeling favored it.  I head out around the early afternoon, and the sun was just sitting there with only a few clouds developed, but no rain ever came.  I was so upset before that day because I thought I wasn't going to be able to go camping with all the rain falling, so I had to wait 3 days later to head out again lol.

    Sounds like last winter in our area.  We kept getting predictions of 12-18 inches of snow, but we would get either nothing, or a couple of inches at most.  It was like we were in a big bubble- everyone around us got slammed, and we got nothing.  So much for computer models!!  :/

  12. The Rickster says:

    There is a saying that my girlfreind has. Computers are only as smart as the person who made it. Thats why I pay attention to nature. I have said it befor and I'll say it again. Befor computers, there was nature!

    No lie. I forgot where I read it, but the Persimmon theory actually DOES have a average accuracy rate. Maybe someone should Google it?
