[SOC] Politically Correct Holiday Wishes

[Jan Clute]

Okay, that's it, fella. You owe me for the waste of some perfectly fine 
coffee that I blew out throught my nose. I forwarded that to a somewhat 
fundamentalist cousin of mine who was really worried about the 
de-Christmasization/Christianization of the current holiday. I wish you 
my thing and you wish me yours (or not, as you choose) and we go on our 
way. I don't think the retailers can win and are silly for trying. But 
thanks agian, this was just plain wonderful. 73 Jan N0AAA (and a PC 
holiday to you, too, having divined from your surname that you are 
probably an orthodox pagan with antisocial tendencies...)
