   It's not that programmer confuse them; rather, the above is the key to   
   the mystical link between the two. It's the underpinning for why Tim   
   Burton's _The Nightmare Before Christmas_ makes sense.   
      
   I went trick-or-treating today with the kids; there was someone in   
   a Santa suit!
