Why was there no Solstice thread?

The solstice is today. It started this morning at 01:08 (in Cape Town)

OK, I get it, the winter solstice lasts only a moment in time, and was this morning at 01:08. Today is midwinter, the shortest day.

Edit: Ok, I'm wrong - the shortest day of the year was Tuesday, June 19, 2012 7:05am to 4:58pm (593 minutes)
