Hello Gang,
This week we tangled with a bit of a flame fest regarding
whether various list-members felt it acceptable to violate
what they considered to be trivial laws. Once the initial flame
front passed, we have had a really interesting, if un-MG-related,
discussion. From this I have learned a lot of things. If I were
to distill everything into just a one issue, it would be this:
Our listmembers range from ultra conservative and literal
to ultra liberal and ethereal when it comes to laws. That is to
be expected as we really are a subset, a sampling, if you will,
of the general population. Our mutual interests have, however,
focused us toward another very important set of conclusions:
+ There are a number of really dangerous drivers out there
and we are all offended (and threatened) by their careless
and selfish behavior.
+ In general, we all try to live, at least, by the spirit of the
law and respect what that means in a crowded inter-dependent
society.
+ We all take driving seriously both from the enjoyment
and safety viewpoints.
Who could ask for better?!
Enjoy your weekend,
Rick / Tulsa
