Subject: RE: BS: 'Please' and 'Thank you' - or not ATCMB
One day in Georgia I held the door for a black woman as I was leaving a restaurant.She thanked me, of course.Some knuckle-dragging bystander commented "You're lucky she thanked you. THEY usually don't." Annoyed the Hell out of me. Till then I had been enjoying the cultural diversity, of which we have very little in my New Hampshire town.
