Dave H, I think what David Miller really means to say is that you should be more like ME (who might be misjudged as being obnoxious) than like Beaver Cleaver's best friend (what was his name???)  LOL! Izzy   PS When did you say you were planning to abandon Mormonism? Or was that just a rumor? Shall I send you a sinner’s prayer so you can get saved; let me know!   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Miller Come on, Dave.  Take yourself out of the picture for a minute.  Can't you imagine someone who is so polite and sugar coated that it becomes simply obnoxious?  If so, then just imagine that you tend to lean toward that end of politeness.  Don't get me wrong.  I would rather you be leaning a little bit that way rather than toward the angry and impolite side, but if you are wanting to understand why some people are offended by you, I think it does lie in this polished veneer that causes them to misjudge you at first.   Personally, I like people that are not afraid to say upfront what they think.  Others often find such individuals obnoxious, but I especially like them because I can see exactly where they are at.
