I ran across an interesting article in a MENSA newsletter (talk about news you can use...) under the title "Why the smell of cinnamon makes you spend money".

It seems that the smell of cinnamon and pine scents will put you into the Christmas spirit, presumably because of sensory memories of a simpler time. (this is not a joke)
Perhaps we could all chip in and send a 55 gal drum to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue...
So I wish you all a safe holiday season and a Merry Christmas - Happy Hanukkah or Eid ul-Fitr
This post has been appropriately dipped in cinnamon and pine scents.
