This issue is getting rather large and also contains some very good news,
so I'll distribute it a few hours early.
 
Some of you may be away for a few days for the holidays or whatever.  If
you are worried about your e-mail piling up, please let me know and I'll
take you off the list for a few days.
 
I'd like to wish all the FMLers and their furballs a great holiday season.
I think it's been a good year for ferrets, partly because of the support
from all of you - a real great bunch of people.  Keep it up folks - I look
forward to making a similar speech next year at this time!
