Subject:      Holiday wishes
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

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 persuasions 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
of 2002, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other
cultures whose contributions have helped make our society great, without
regard to race, creed, color, religious or sexual preference of the wishes.

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.
