Our culture and society is in the slide down into the cess pool. I agree completely that no one should ever be using foul language or anything like that in front of people you don't know, ladies, kids, etc. Unfortunately manners are a thing of the past. How many of us have held a door for another person and gotten a surprised look and a sort of shocked "Thanks!" I was a wrestling practice for one of my boys a couple years back and an extremely pregnant woman walked in with her boy. None of the trash around her would get up and offer her a seat, so I called to her and got her to come over and take my seat. You would have thought I'd invented fire and a cure for cancer and fat chicks in spandex at Walmart all in one move from the looks I got.
So we all agree, for the most part, that it's wrong, offensive, poor manners and shows a decided lack of self respect, respect for others and makes the person doing so look positively ignorant. Right? So why are so many people here so very, very fond of using foul language here? Yes, you have to misspell is to conceal it, but we all see it. There are kids and ladies and many men, like myself, who don't need to see the hairy chested morons using every possible method they can think of to use the "f" word. If it was just us, fine. I'm a former Marine, 20 year cop, I know words and phrases you probably never heard of. But not here. Not on line for that matter. The only way you fix this stuff is to start at square one and provide an example of how NOT to be an idiot.
Just remember, we created this mess. We get to either clean it up or live in it.

Today's Featured Article - Gatherin of the Orange - by Rick Nikolich. In July of 1998 I was talking to fellow Allis Chalmers collector Mike Schilling about the annual "Gathering of The Orange" AC show coming up in August of 1999. He got this wild idea that we should get a convoy of AC tractors and drive them from Charlotte, Michigan 105 miles to LaGrange, Indiana.
