It's Chriiiiiiiiiiiiiiistmaaaaaaaaaaasssssssssss!
the word christ doesnt really mean anything to me, (i even used a small c.. i shalst burrrn..)
peopel from Bath have no force here.
Xmas has been used since the 16th century.
X (from the Greek letter Chi) has been used a symbol for Christ since 1551, it would seem.
I dislike the word too, but its use is not technically incorrect.
I say Winter Solstice because I am a hippy.
I write Xmas, I say Christmas.
