    Thank you for the clarification. Apologies for being prickly, but when I read your post, I really didn't get it that you were referring specifically to your experiences or where you live. I zeroed in on the word "any" and took it to mean the largest definition possible. If I was mistaken, then my sincere apologies. Instead of re-reading the post, I "shotgunned" my reply and now am eating "crow".

    No problem. I never, ever generalize groups based on my own experiences with individuals. That's for small minds- people who don't know any better.
