    The same back at ya, Grandpa Gene!!

and

Best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low
stress, non-addictive, gender neutral, winter solstice holiday,
practiced within the most joyous traditions of the religious persuasion
of your choice, but with respect for the religious persuasion of others
who choose to practice their own religion as well as those who choose
not to practice a religion at all;

Additionally,

a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling, and medically
uncomplicated recognition of the generally accepted calendar year 2022,
but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other
cultures whose contributions have helped make our society great,
without regard to the race, creed, color, religious, or sexual
preferences of the wishees.

(Disclaimer: This greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal.
It implies no promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the
wishes for her/himself or others and no responsibility for any
unintended emotional stress these greetings may bring to those not
caught up in the holiday spirit.)

No.  "Manually reversible" means you can pick the fan up and turn it
around. -- Consumer Reports, Oct. 1991
