It's an honest mistake, I believe? Even in a small country like mine the shortest day is sometimes December 21st - in other years December 22nd. But we always celebrate it December 24th

That's the idea! Consistency, yes.
Stick to the regular and predictable
systems of man-made mathematics. It's
just too much trouble trying to figger
out nature's variables. We aint all got
brains like Einstein. Pick a date and
stick with it, I say. The 21sts of March,
June, September and December are handy,
predictable and close enough for folk music.
