 From the old guy in BC who wishes one and all a blessed Christmas, if 
Christian, or winter solstice if pagan, or blessed whatever if some 
other religion. Whatever it is that you believe in, I echo Dave's plea, 
in the Christian faith, the birth of Christ was supposed to be the 
advent of the" Prince of Peace " May we all strive to make it so. For 
the other faiths I know that they all preach PEACE, even if some of them 
do not adhere to that portion of their belief. This is the second 
Christmas that a lot of folk will celebrate, without their loved ones 
who were lost in Sept 01. Let us all pray that it never happens again in 
America, of which Canada is the largest part, or for that matter, in any 
other part of the world. This is perhaps too much to hope for, but does 
not hope spring eternal, in the human breast? End of Christmas rant. 
Marie and I wish to all Chile-Heads, wherever you may be, the very best 
wishes and may all your chiles grow well, and hot next year.  Cheers, 
Doug and Marie in Beautiful British Columbia
