Nope. You just made that up. Culture is obviously communicated from parents and elders and persons in positions of authority to children and those in need of correction. > Pardon me, I think I need a few hours to get over this laughing fit... If you never came back, you wouldn't be missed...

Pardon me...another one of those laughing fits coming on... So according to you, "culture" is something ONLY communicated between persons of the same ethnic heritage and race? And hence that a person's ethnicity is still far, far more important than the overall culture in which they are raised? And here I thought it was simply not possible that a person could be so dense as to flunk Sociology 101, but you have again proven that sort of assumption incorrect. Bob M.

Soc. 101 is a gateway for 'tards majoring in the social sciences. MATT
