For my Liberal minded friends on the board:
Please accept with no obligation, implied or otherwise, my best wishes for an environmentally friendly, socially responsible, non-addictive, gender neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasion and or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all. Also, this wish is made without regard to race, creed, color, age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference of the wishee. This greeting implies no promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the wishes for himself or others, and is void where prohibited by law.
Now, for my Conservative friends on the board:
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
