I have been on another Scotch Irish list where just the other day someone
horribly insulted someone who was just trying to be helpful. I'm with you
Ruth. My mama used to say, if you can't say something nice, don't say
anything!. All the list people go out of their way with their free time to
help others. They should all be commended. My father on the other hand
used to say what you said. If you want to get your point across there are
an unlimited amount of words, not profane to use. If that's not enough, use
Hebrew Greek or Latin.. Better yet, if you don't want an email, mark it as
spam or put it on the junk list or blocked sender list. But don't behave
in a way that would make your ancestors wish they had never birthed your
line. Ellie
