You appear to place a lot of emphasis on superficial language. I think it is more important not to force one's ideal on others than to insert a few polite words into a sentence when communicating. If you want to get terribly upset because I write sarcastically, that is your prerogative. If I do not want to do something that someone forces me to do, that is by definition NOT my prerogative. In other words, supporting certain positions or rules has consequences on others that those who support the rules should acknowledge, but my writing sarcastic remarks does not impose any consequences on you except for those you choose. _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
