"In the old days, it was not called the Holiday Season

In our VERY politically correct college town (one of our friends who works at the University of Iowa was ordered by
the HR director to remove a 6-inch ceramic Christmas tree from her desk, because it "might offend" someone!) it's
the norm to say "Happy Holidays!"

Almost NO ONE here says, "Merry Christmas!"

However, I take comfort in the knowledge that "Holiday" is derived from "Holy Day" -- and thus the PC Nazis are
actually inadvertently sanctioning saying the same thing as everyone else...

:-)

Merry Christmas!
