Streamlining was appropriate in view of the reality that the North Pole no longer dominates the season's gift distribution business. Home shopping channels and mail order catalogues have diminished Santa's market share and he could not sit idly by and permit further erosion of the profit picture.

Eng said he believes the discovery will revolutionize humanity's potential for harnessing smithereenetic energy.
