Yes, it IS the war on Hanukkah, and it's just as annoying to some 
Christians, too, who observe . . . ADVENT.  Christmas doesn't actually 
begin until Christmas Day, and it continues (remember the song?) for 
the next eleven days. 
For many people, however, the Christmas decorations all come down on 
the 26th.  Not to mention the fact that we have to put up with hearing 
Christmas carols played incessantly for nearly two months ahead of time. 

Grrr. 

Curmudgeonly yours,
Doug
