2011 Holiday Guide Three: Geek Greetings Edition

On Dec. 21, or 22, or 25, or 26, or maybe even some other day, depending on your cosmological view of things, people will express to you what you mean to them, and you will reciprocate. The Weekly Volcano knows (or at least we like to think we know) that this is what Santa is all about, and it is the certainty of these things - of exchanging gifts both tangible and intangible - that sustains us through the long days and cold nights.

For our third Holiday Guide, we offer useful and semi-useful electronic gift suggestions, as well as feature stories on geeks, holiday entertainment, historical events, charitable entities and our awesome South Sound Holiday Happenings calendar.
