Responding to the article itself, the statement "I believe in Santa Claus"
may not be "culturally neutral", but those other cultural groups referenced
in later would simply not check the box, as would those of the Santa culture
that also don't believe in Santa Claus.
I want to read the manual with the Buckaroo Banzai references in it,
however. Just hearing about it is cracking me up. Now I'm going to have to
dig that DVD out of my archives and rewatch it tonight when I get home...
