Best to you and yours in the North Country this Xmas and the New Year season Byron; and may The Creator give ET a strong enough Laser to Call Home and a little left over to call all here also.

Everyone should visit Byron's Carl Sagan web site at least twice to get its full impact.

So when I say juletid in Danish, you will know the meaning!
So happy juletid to all!

Dear Byron!

Don't feel sad, because this is not the time for feeling sad, it's the time of joy! For everybody, for those who celebrate the birth of our Saviour, for those who celebrate the return of light and for others, who just has some days of! You live in Canada, so you, as we here in Scandinavia, really feel how dark here is in midwinter, so the time where the axis of planet Earth changes its course, we celebrate the return of light. So this is the time for happiness and joy, not sadness!

And, does it really matter in which thread this is expressed? I don't think so! ;-)

Glædelig jul til dig, Byron!

Lena
