No need to get hostile there curmudgeon (btw, I didn't know it was possible to trademark and copyright the word "curmudgeon").

The "we" are "us". :)

...those of us who have had all the Xmas cheer we can take for one year, who would like to be able to have some nice respite here at Mudcat now that it is all over.

Sure, maybe it's easy to take aim at and flame an anon guest, even in the season of peace and goodwill.

But c'mon. Everyone has played nice so far. Xmas is over, yet there currently remains (by my count) 25 Xmas threads in the BS section alone. I know some Joe Clones will be stopping in at their end of their Xmas hol soon, so I just thought I'd ask if it would be possible to consolidate a few "Happy Christmas" threads with the "Merry Christmas" threads. Is that so awful?
