As I a young bloke I thought that sort of stuff wasn't all that important for other people - my Dad had inspired such a philosophy in me and my brothers - but for other people pfwwer. But as I grow older I find more and more Dad's passed on that message - I suspect that "There are too few of those people around these days" is something of a truism. Just see how well you are treated here in this forum. Yes there is the obligatory leg pulling and probably worse amongst we Aussies, but I am firmly convinced that there are many fine people out there - you only have to find them. Treat people the way you wish to be treated and "the Great Unwashed" will always surprise you.
