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.

In addition, please also accept our best wishes for a fiscally successful,
personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset
of the generally accepted calendar year 2006, but not without due respect
for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society
have helped make this country great (not to imply that this country is
necessarily greater than any other country or area of choice), and without
regard to the race, sex, creed, color, age, physical ability, religious
faith or sexual orientation of the wishers.

This wish is limited to the customary and usual good tidings for a period of
one year, or until the issuance of a subsequent holiday greeting, which ever
comes first. "Holiday" is not intended to, nor shall it be considered,
limited to the usual Judeo-Christian celebrations or observances, or to such
activities of any organized or ad hoc religious community, group, individual
or belief (or lack thereof).

Note: by accepting this greeting, you are accepting these terms.

This greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal, and is revocable at
the sole discretion of the wisher at any time, for any reason or for no
reason at all.

This greeting is freely transferable with no alteration to the original
greeting.

This greeting implies no promise by the wisher to or actually implement any
of the wishes for the wisher her/himself, or him/herself or others, or
responsibly for the consequences which may arise from the implementation or
non implementation of it.

This greeting is void where prohibited by law.


To the rest of you:

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR! ;-)
