    :D

    The Feast of Sinterklaas, or St. Nicholas, is an annual event which has been uniquely Dutch and Flemish for centuries. St. Nicholas' Feast Day, December 6th, is observed in most Roman Catholic countries primarily as a feast for small children. But it is only in the Low Countries - especially in the Netherlands - that the eve of his feast day (December 5th) is celebrated nationwide by young and old, christian and non-christian, and without any religious overtones.

    :D

    mmm..could be he did (he's far more educated then I am, as you surely are aware of, Jan) - but then again: isn't "sinterklaas" al about believing or not believing? ;)
