Sluggy? Humph. If you want to read about the _real_ Santa, you have 
to pick up the short story "The Toy Mill", and the novel "The Clause 
Effect" by David Nickle and Karl Schroeder. Santa isn't just evil... 
evil is too... nice a term.

Karl is the writer of the Hugo nominated novel Ventus, Dave is the 
author of a number of award winning horror stories. Oh, yeah, full 
disclosure... they happen to be friends of mine...
