There must be a difference in the thickness of skin and the squareness of
the top of the shoulders where chips reside on people from different eras.
Some of us have been around so long, and life has taught us many important
lessons. Some stuff just don't matter, and some stuff like honesty and
integrity and being true to your word matters quite a bit. But, as Pogo
Possom said, "Albert, don' take life too seriously, 'taint nohow permanent.
" Your opinion might vary, and you are welcome to it. Many of us old farts
ducked bombs and bullets so that EVERY LEGITIMATE CITIZEN could express
those opinions.
And GMC owners, too. I am amazed at the depth of expertise that
exists here. Airline pilots, electrical and chemical engineers, rocket
scientists, nuclear physicists, and on and on. I respect them all.
