Price of Coal

The essay

What do you get for people working hard to perfect their synchronized Gestapo routine? The Price of Coal offers my suggestion. I hope those of you celebrating tonight and tomorrow have happy Christmas. And for those of you not celebrating, if the line at the Chinese restaurant is too long, might I suggest Thai? I know it’s not traditional, but the times they are a-changing.
