Hey baby! What's your sign?

If someone comes up to you in the bar with their "Hey baby, what's your sign?" pick-up line, better get up to speed on this news. According to a recent article in Gawker, astronomers have restored the original Babylonian Zodiac.  What does this mean? Well, your sign might have changed!  And mine did... and to something I had never heard before: Ophiuchus Nov. 29-Dec. 17.  They brought back the original 13 signs of the Zodiac and their original corresponding dates.
