Not only that, but you'll get more of the summer constellations and
fewer of the winter ones.

Re: "No more mid-October CalStars"  Well, policy like this should be
based on the climate, not on the weather you get today.  October is
usually a dry month.  No "mistake" was made, it just worked out this
way.

There's no way you can accommodate everyone.  As long as you avoid
the holidays, that's about the best you can do.
