I celebrate Christmas as a secular holiday but I do call it Christmas. I'm all for remembering Newton's birthday but it's not much cause for a party. If you're a Norman you might be celebrating William the Conqueror coronation at Westminster Abbey this day in 1066. You might be celebrating the rebirth of Sol Invictus if you're a Roman with a dodgy idea of when the solstice falls. You might be celebrating Babbage Eve to get ready for the anniversary of the great man tomorrow.

No matter. I hope you enjoyed the day and spent it in good company. Peace and the love of good friends for the New Year to you all.

Yeah, Happy Newtonmas doesn't quite have the same bite to it.

A very Merry Christmas to you, Sam and Rowen across the pond here from snowy Canada*.

* Please feel free to take some of it away if you have no snow of your own.
