But why should they divide it up the same way we do?
With the weather we have here in Rochester, you wouldn't think to divide up
the year into four even seasons. We have a month, maybe two, of summer; the
rest is winter.
An example, our compass has four main directions. Klingons have three main
directions; chan, 'ev, and tIng.
