Editor’s note: Hundreds of papers run the famous “Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus” story at this time of year. If that children’s story can be re-run over many decades, then I don’t apologize for a column re-run. I think this is one of the best of the over 1,600 columns I have ever written and with it, I wish you and yours all the best for Christmas and 2022. Ken Waddell
