   And February 3 was the day that Bill Murray’s character   
   reached release/redemption from the time loop, though   
   it was probably after dawn.   
      
   Also tonight I heard an interview repeated from last   
   year on the CBC Radio One program As It Happens   
   on which the actor who plays Ned the irritating   
   insurance salesman said that Bill Murray’s character   
   was stuck in the February 2 time loop for 10,000 years,   
   the time said in Buddhism to be required for a soul   
   to be purified (or something like that, I forget his   
   exact words).
