Anything that can go wrong, will—at the worst possible moment. -- Finagle's Law of Dynamic Negatives.

We assumed the VolcanoCamHD clock to correctly understand Leap Day was put to the test last Friday and it failed. Thanks to assistance from several loyal VolcanoCam viewers, and the VolcanoCamHD camera manufacturer, we thought our manual efforts were successful. After all, a new month on Saturday showed us all was well with the world. Of course, we were wrong in that the VolcanoCamHD clock has decided to mimic the storyline from the movie, Ground Hog Day this past weekend. Our humble apologies our Friday efforts were for naught and we all spent the weekend reliving the same day over and over again.
