At the MVP conference in Singapore they kept talking about "winter
releases". It started off with a few people calling out "Whose winter?" and
every time a season was mentioned more people would join in. I swear, 80% of
the room yelled it back at them before the presenters got the picture and
took a note home :-) Winter got changed to the final quarter of <year> very
quickly on everyone's crib sheets.
