TURKS WANT SANTA BACK
"The Santa Claus Foundation, based in mainly Muslim Turkey, wants Italy to return the bones of St. Nicholas - the 4th century bishop in the Greek city now called Demre on the Turkish Mediterranean coast. Muammer Karabulut, the group's chairman, told The Associated Press that the remains of St. Nicholas, from whom the Santa Claus myth emerged, were stolen from what is now Turkey by pirates in the 11th century and taken to Italy."
Do they seriously think that's going to happen? I suspect that they're just looking for a little media attention. They have succeeded.
