I agreed totally with you about commercialization, where I disagreed with you was with you categorizing people who travel on the holidays to be lemmings who don’t think home is good enough.
The fact is most people do not live in walking distance of family and travel to be with them is necessary. Sorry, but I don’t see that as commercialization, I believe that family is what these holidays are about. So sorry you disagree.
It's OK, though. I hope you have an enjoyable holiday.
