Best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible,
low stress, non-addictive, gender neutral, winter solstice holiday,
practiced within the most joyous traditions of the religious
persuasion of your choice, but with respect for the religious
persuasion of others who choose to practice their own religion as
well as those who choose not to practice a religion at all;
plus,
A fiscally successful, personally fulfilling, and medically
uncomplicated recognition of the generally accepted calendar year
2005, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of the
other cultures whose contributions have helped make our society
great, without regard to age, race, creed, color, religion, national
origin, disability, political affiliation or sexual orientation.
(Disclaimer: This greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal. It
implies no promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the
wishes for him/herself or others and no responsibility for any
unintended emotional stress these greetings may bring to those not
caught up in the holiday spirit.)
Heck, I'm not afraid to say it...
I hope everybody here has a Merry Christmas and a happy new year!
Thanks to all of you for making PMEL Forum what it is today and here's to growing it even bigger next year!
