Well, thank you for the complete definition. If I understand it and I think I do, lots of you folks spend a lot of your time trolling each other and baiting everyone who has an opinion. It IS your time.

cattin' around and Q make valid points about race relations during prewarII and postwarII. Seems like I have a few kin in little towns in Georgia, Alto and Cornelia, and seems like they told me that signs were posted in the 20's and 30's warning a certain group of people "not to be caught in town after sundown". Fortunately times have changed but sentiments still runs deep in these areas. People who do not live in these areas of the south only know what they read.
So be tolerant when residents describe the history and present of the areas they live in. They know better than you. I think I am going to enjoy dropping in on these bouts every once in a while. Bet the same people will be here. Ciao, Jack (Gawd, I do hope I spelled that right.)
