um, i guess i missed something here.

i just dont read stuff that isnt of interest on the travel front, but i do read a lot of stuff on newsgroups where flame wars are common. those flame wars come and go and the good newsgroups stay around.

the difference here is many of us know one another personally, or have at least met one anonther.

every community has people who are offended and those that offend. the offenders and offened sometimes just have that personality that leads them to the proper level of offence as the case may be.

as for me, i grew up with an italian mother, so not much bothers me.

so, maybe we need more italian sons around here.

just be cool. it is only bits and bytes.

from garth and reba....woof!woof!woof!
