Great article detailing the demise of the courtesies and formalities of everyday life, in yesteryear.
I remember when Mom used to dress us in our Sunday best, to fly commercial airlines. Have you seen what people where on commercial flights, these days??
OT....how are you enjoying the six months of COLD weather, up there?
Whenever I fly especially internationally I always wear a coat and tie I am an anachronism I suppose but I feel I get better service. Also, unlike some fellow passengers I dont like looking like I slept in a dumpster.
