See i don't find larry's comments disresepectful. Is PC just the way the majority of our societies are heading? Where people can't just relax and stop getting pissed off about simple things that should not be so complicated?
If so perhaps i will be the dinosaur. I just hold out hope that one day this nonsense will stop and that people will wake up and say you know "wtf we have better things to do then get upset about this stuff". Why can't we worry about things that really matter like making sure we can take proper care of our homeless populations or any of the greater number of things that we need to work on in both our countries. Or will being PC help clear all that up just by making people more sensitive to making people upset? That question is not trying to sound smartass is that really the theory? Perhaps if i understood the reasoning behind it i would be more of a fanboy. On 12/9/05, Larry C. Lyons <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I forgot to mention the natives that moved to the cities.
