And what you generally see, INCLUDING in the case which generated this thread, is a great deal of tolerance from the community for such things, followed by polite requests to "please follow the local custom." What you saw in this thread, after that polite request, was the violent reaction to responses that essentially amounted to "screw the convention, I wanna do it my way." -- Derek D.
