PC, PC, PC... Just what is it? I mean what is PC to one is and insult to another..? Ok, I grew up in LA and have friends of many races, religions, and backgrounds. A couple families I have known since a child call themselves 'Gypsies' and appear quite proud of it. I have many black friends, some prefer to be called 'black', while others consider that an insult; I have Mexican friends, some want to be called 'Mexican', others 'Mexican-American', and still others say only 'Hispanic' is proper.....Where does it all end and Hey: What Do I Call Myself?????? (me= German, Irish, English, American Indian, Norwegian) What the heck, if I offended anyone then just call me 'Mongrel" (also acceptable: whitie, honky, white-boy, or hippy. But not Red-Neck, I am a rock-roller and that would be an insult)... Anton, your stuff is great. You can't please everyone so just please yourself, but please don't stop (I ditto what Snowsultan and Steveshanks say) Now, who wants to 'punch my lights out'??
