Re: DeMoine info?

Gene- feel free to open a door for me anytime! Hopefully we've gotten over some of our hyper-correctness and can once again enjoy basic polite and helpful behavior.

I am in my mid-sixties so came from practically another planet. At least I felt a bit alien at times. The world has certainly changed on me. However, not as bad for me as for some. I was born into poverty and very large family so I did not have the luxury of lots of "culture". We had to learn very early to take care of ourselves. If you wanted a clean ironed shirt.. guess who did the ironing? Want to eat??? Help with dinner. Want a clean environment.... help keep it clean. Etc. Between that and military I am pretty self sufficient. Always have been.
Remember a time when I receive a verbal dressing down for opening a door for a female back in the early 70's. Seems I just "didn't get it".

Great term, Gene. I had not heard it before, but I believe that is what some people around here mean when they refer to 'our culture." I must say I spent many years unlearning it.
