We were discussing Santa and stockings this morning, and Michael said that we had been bad this year so that he and I would be getting coal in our stockings. I said that actually we were giving the coal away to Chinese factories so they could pollute the air, which distressed Luke (he really wants to save the planet from CO2). Eleanor then suggested that instead of coal, the greener alternative would be to give us wind in our stockings. Now that sounds like a good idea, and much less trouble to transport to relatives' houses for Christmas.
