 HAPPY
 HOLIDAYS

       Please accept with no obligation,
       implied or implicit our best wishes for
       an environmentally conscious,
       socially responsible, low stress,
       non-addictive, gender neutral,
       celebration of the winter solstice
       holiday, practiced within the most
       enjoyable traditions of the religious
       persuasion of your choice, or secular
       practices of your choice, with respect
       for the religious/secular persuasions
       and/or traditions of others, or their
       choice not to practice religious or
       secular traditions at all . . .

       and a fiscally successful,
       personally fulfilling, and medically
       uncomplicated recognition of the onset
       of the generally accepted calendar
       year 1999, but not without due respect
       for the calendars of choice of other
       cultures whose contributions to
       society have helped make America great,
       (not to imply that America is necessarily
       greater than any other country or is
       the only "AMERICA" in the western
       hemisphere), and without regard to the
       race, creed, color, age, physical ability,
       religious faith, choice of computer platform,
       or sexual preference of the wishee.
