From: Kevin Turner <k.turner-AT-lancaster.ac.uk>
Subject: This message is a demonstration of goodwill...


This message is a demonstration of goodwill and is in no way an
admission of liability.

WHEREAS:

Kevin Turner, herein referred to as wishor, desires to promulgate,
distribute, send and/or otherwise convey a seasonal message of good
cheer to several recipients, herein referred to as wishees, and whereas 
wishor has been advised by controlling legal authority on the 
ramifications and implicit liabilities concomitant with conveyance of 
said seasonal messages,

NOW THEREFORE:

Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, wishor's best
wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, 
low-stress, nonaddictive, gender-neutral celebration of the winter 
solstice period, practiced within the traditions of the religious 
persuasion of your choice, or of any secular practices wishee may feel 
more comfortable with, but with respect for the religious/secular 
persuasions and/or traditions of others, consistent with their implicit 
choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all . . .

A N D

Wishor's further best wishes for a fiscally successful, personally
fulfilling, and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of one
commonly accepted calendar year - 2000 - , but not without due respect
for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to 
society have helped make England what it is, and without regard to the 
race, creed, colour, age, physical ability, religious faith, educational 
status, income level, place of residence, place of birth, voting record 
or gender orientation of the wishee.

NOTICE:

By accepting this seasonal greeting, you are accepting these terms. This
greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal. It is freely
transferable with no alteration to the original greeting.

It implies no promise by the wishor to actually implement any of the
wishes for her/himself or others, and is void where prohibited by law,
and is revocable at the sole discretion of the wishor.

This wish is warranted to perform as expected within the usual
application of good tidings for a period of one (1) year, or until the 
issuance of a subsequent holiday greeting, whichever comes first, and 
warranty is limited to replacement of this wish or issuance of a new 
wish at the sole discretion of the wishor.

So SEASON'S GREETINGS! (subject to terms and limitations stated above)

No lawyers were harmed in the preparation and promulgation of this
message. Unfortunately.
