Nah.. forum posts are SO easy to misinterperate. Especially since there are so many countries and languages participating. It's very easy to assume someone comes from familar "regional" surroundings, and then further down the road, you find out you're altlking to and participating with someone across the globe.

That struck me first many years ago, when Neftis called me on th ephone, we had a lengthy 1 hour conversation, and then I realized she was literally calling from almost exactly across the globe from me!

The poserverse is truly a "world" community, and I've learned much from other people in it, with other cultures, and other heritages.

While I'll fight to the teeth to protect my OWN traditions, I also embrace learning other's traditions as well.. I find it so interesting that so many different countries share some VERY basic heritages and traditions.

Way too many people take way too many things way too seriously.
