On behalf of myself and all the author/editors here at Flowers for Socrates, we’d like to wish you all a Happy Holidays – no matter your holiday of choice – and thank you all for reading and participating in our blog. Over the last year, FFS has grown faster than any of us could have reasonably expected. That is due in no small part to our wonderful contributors but truly the gift is from you, the audience, to us. We had very modest expectations as to readership when I started this venue and those expectations were far more than met.
Thank you all very much.
May your days of celebration be filled with family, friends, love and good cheer. A bit of good food and drink too. May your New Year be filled with even more.
So say we all.
Gene Howington, Editor-in-Chief

Same to ya all!
Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas, and a great 2015!!
Gene,
You should thank us!
This is the hardest work I do all day!
Seasons Greeting to all.
Enjoy the Northern Hemisphere Winter Solstice festival everyone.
Thanks, Carlyle. I’m looking forward to Saturnalia too.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to the FFSers!
Happy Holidays!
Ho, ho, ho.
