Maybe we should produce an Etherian calendar? What do you guys think?
Yes. Make an Etherian Calendar. Also, I like how 15-30 is the Festival of Lights because
1. no particular real-life winter solstice celebration is privileged over the others, and
2. 15 days of Christmahannukwanzabodhica? Awesome! Oh wait, you skipped Bodhi day and Chalica. Cross out #1, if you wanted to be perfectly fair and representative you should have had the holiday last 31 days.
Oh yeah, and my number 3 reason is that in real life people are so obsessed with christmas, and I think it would be healthier if that obsession were diluted over 15 days of Christmas instead of building up for and expending all one's emotional energy on just one. Just saying.
