^^On the Ludacris thing: Before the Tim Allen Christmas movies came out, I think more people knew that it's Santa Claus, not Clause. The -e on the end was a pun on the language of contracts. Now people think the person is actually called Santa Clause. This does bug me, because it's basically ignorant. And because if told otherwise, people will not believe it or think it matters. I think that's the part that really gets me about these things.

You are right about the mathlessness (not a word, but it works) being scary too.
