Thing 12

I believe it is very important the way in which you comment on a posting. As my father always said it's not what you say, but how you say it. Unfortunately, when responding, it is almost impossible to convey "how you are saying it". I also worry that too many people are choosing to connect electronically to people instead of developing the personal relationships that are critical to our emotional well being. That said, the two commandments I like best were 1. Read before you comment: so many times, we want to just "jump right in there" with our opinion. The second commandment I like was 5. Don't be condescending; after all, even idiots are entitled to their opinion...just watch mainstream T.V.
