Cat Launches International Snowflake Registry
A Norwegian Forest Cat named Miko has kicked off an initiative to catalog every snowflake that falls to Earth during the winter of 2013.
“He’s not convinced that every one is unique,” says Richard Tobin, whom Miko appointed president of the International Snowflake Registry. “The only way to know for sure is to gather up every single one, take a photo under the microscope, and file them in a database. Once that’s done, we do digital comparative analysis to see if there are any matches. It’s ridiculously tedious and kind of stupid, but Miko couldn’t think of any other way to spend $36 billion.”
