    Go Salty!!!! I was a bit underwhelmed when I came to this country and was required to attend cultural sensitivity training. I was MIFFED, as an Australian I have always ADHERED to the proud cultural sensitivity of being insensitive to all and sundry.:thumbsup:

    What a crock of manure, I try to treat all manner of persons with the respect and dignity that any human being to accord another.:1_grouphug:

    While I am not into or out of PC, I thinks sometimes we need to mince our words correctly.
