Holding a door for a woman is just a thing of the past now. I always do it when I see a lady in back of me, but I don't think I get a the "what are you up?" look. I think it's just a look of surprise that I'm doing such a thing in this day and age. You should see the looks I get when I open the car door for my wife. It's the least I can do for a woman that puts up with all my poster buying, and old car buying too for that matter. The fact that Rich and I do open doors for women is evidence of how old we are. The times they are a changing. And not so much for the best. John W

Me too. Civility seems to have eroded everywhere. Many times I pick up multiple packages from my post office box and I can count on less than three fingers how often people coming in will hold the door.
