Channel theory and the winter holiday

Transaction rates slow way down in cold country during the winter. Channel theory says bigger payloads, less often in the winter, and Shannon applies. There will exist, in could economies, a seasonal polynomial, rank two, and all flows will attempt to maximize their mutual entropy with that polynomial. It will appear as a factor in all production.

So, save for the winter means the -iLog(i) for winter i and summer i, are within an integer, but their is a rate enforcement due to mother nature. Mathematically one would find the best Fibonacci match by direct measurement, just grab sales statistics from the web and try to divine retail transaction rates.

This -iLog(i) constraint is well enforced by winter holidays, large feasts less often. Holiday traditions enforce the supply side also direct reminders for holiday preparations. So winter holidays get accentuated in cold country. Outside observers might see them as rich when they are just wintered with a base polynomial.
