Hey, "thanks" for showing that a Brit, too, can have arrogance and cultural insensitivity ... 73 Charles Harpole [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [email protected] Subject: Re: [DX-CHAT] 'tis the season Date: Fri, 14 Dec 2007 22:50:02 +0000 HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO ALL !!

Please remember it is most polite to offer a "seasons greetings" or "happy holidays" to those not of the Christian faiths (instead of "Merry Christmas" for example). Receivers of the mis-directed "merry christmases"--most will forgive the senders' misplaced earnestness but the implied arrogance and cultural insensitivity still remains to taint in a small way an otherwise happy season. Thanks for your understanding of individual differences. And, no "happy fourth of July" to a Brit, pse. 73, Charles Harpole [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-chat To post a message, DX related items only, [email protected] This is the DX-CHAT reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-chat To post a message, DX related items only, [email protected] This is the DX-CHAT reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org
