Hi Candy,
I'm sure you didn't mean to insinuate that some of us don't have actual lives?

Tomi, I agree that we can be affected by how we interact here on the boards. So, you and Sky are both right!

Don't you think there is a difference between how you are perceived IRL vs. 3D? With the written word, we lose so much information! No tone of voice, no eye contact, no volume, no body language etc. Interpreting these signals is in included in a class I teach to local law enforcement and I think it is so important to good communication. And, I think it can "soften" our words and we lose all that in a post here.

Others' thoughts?
Okie
