I think I misinterpreted your post, Mika.
If it's Christmas, they should say "Happy Christmas" and not just "Happy Holidays". This is a good example of where political correctness leads up to. Let me give you an example. In my ethic class we were talking about the "Golden Rule" and how you can find it in all major religions. Asking my students - just for fun - when Jesus, who is responsible for the "Golden Rule" in the bible, had lived, the answers were very disturbing. From "I think about a 1000 years ago" up to "I think he was born 300 years BC" we had it all. Can you imagine somebody (form 9, that means 14/15 years old) saying "Jesus was born 300 years BEFORE Christ"?
Christ!
Concerning snowmen and summer in Australia, even I can not change this. I could only offer to make the world turn the other way round, although I can not garantuee for anyone's safety during this short period where the earth stands still before turning into the other direction. Zero gravity can be very annyoing for you mortals. Just remember how hard life was before Newton invented gravity.
