		<description>Of course, Max... to some people, it does.  Kids certainly get caught up in the magic of Santa and all that... even if all they get are a couple of new coloring books and a big box of crayons.  And I know quite a number of people who take it seriously as a religious holiday... neither a reason to go into debt, nor a reason to get all political.  I&#039;d be ok if Christmas just disappeared, though.</description>

		<description>Yeah, I know they won&#039;t listen.  I just think far too logically, and none of this makes sense.  Oh, and I don&#039;t like Christmas, no matter who&#039;s in charge of it.  Heh.</description>

		<description>Heh. They won&#039;t listen to your advice, because the main reason they want to put the &#039;Christ&#039; back into Christmas is so that THEY can capitalize on it by way of donations. It always goes back to money *sigh*.</description>
