    Hear, Hear Dave! I have always tried to take that route, although the snide comments can certainly be aggrivating at times.

    American President Theodore Roosevelt once said "courtesy is as much a mark of a gentleman as courage."

    Didn't he also say "speak softly and carry a big stick"?

    I do always try to be polite in my response to the comments and actions of others. Heck, I even apoligized to the guy that started a fight with me in Atlanta as I dragged him out of the way of my car.
