- I disagree that you made a mistake in any way. "Merry Christmas" and
- "Happy Hanukkah" are perfectly acceptable sentiments to wish upon the
- world at this time of year, and people who object to them have problems
- sufficient unto themselves. There are many things to take issue with at
- this time of year, and I am one of the more vocal to do so, but someone
- wishing others well, in whatever form, is not one of them.
-
- My previous posting on this matter was intended to be a sarcastic rejoinder
- to the original flame, and was no doubt misunderstood by some (that's a
- given in newsgroup postings).
-
- Season's greetings.

- (And, in case I forget, Happy Groundhog Day, too.)
