I think that this issue boils down to the sort of "social manners" you are used to. I have heard it said that the British would not point out your wrong doing until right up to the second before they kill you.

I am used to the way people were taught in Ohio, where they did not remind others of rules..... IF they were ADULTS. However mothers had no problem reporting another's child to it's mother and the mother was grateful so she could take the little scofflaw in hand and um...redirect him.

Some people from certain areas are very outspoken and if you move here to The Villages, that takes some getting used to. On the other side of the coin, those who are try to phrase things gently are sometimes looked down on here for NOT speaking up. It all depends on how you were raised and where you were raised.

It really doesn't matter. It appears that most of us have so much confidence in our own way of looking at things, that nothing will change our mind and to try is going to annoy us big time and entirely a waste of time.

All we can do is to run our own railroad.

And either watch Darwins theory play out or Karma bite us in the butt.
