A little late, but I just ran across this today.

Xmas

So apparently Xmas isn't removing Christ from Christmas, but rather a nod to the Greek word for Christ.

Yeah that's interesting. I had heard of that before, but it's not really widely known. Heck, most people that use Xmas dont even know the origin of it.

Interesting. Thanks for the enlightenment. Would have never have thought it.
