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. Charles |

Dear Lena Stensgaard , I like very much what you wrote here: href="http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=7494 Lena Stensgaard wrote: On the occasion of wintersolstice on the northern hemisphere, else it must be summersolstice for the southern hemisphere A thread to say greetings to all!I wish all you, who celebrate Christmass, a merry Christmass!To all of you, who don't celebrate Christmass, I wish you a happy holliday!And to those of you, who don't celebrate anything and don't have a holliday, I wish you a happy solstice, or yuletide, which is an old norse word for wintersolstice. So when I say juletid in Danish, you will know the meaning! So happy juletid to all! Dear Lena _ thank you very much Dear Lena , I feel very sad , because I used the wrong thread ,I am very sorry Lena I do sincerely apologize Very sincere best wishes and happy hollidays Greetings to: Lena Stensgaard in Denmark from friendly you and respectful ____ 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 |
