re: Just call me old-fashioned. - Dear, gb,
I now, but not everyone comes from the place we have been at.
Sometimes, we'll seem as parrots, not knowing enough, etc.
When you come from a place that TRULY deprived you of every human right and you know why, YOU KNOW WHY and then by golly, when you flee such a place you don't wish that on any other human being on Earth.
Apologies if this offends some.
BTW, to gb: I've always understood (while I have this opportunity).
