> I think we all need a pbc once in awhile. I think we all need that person who will ask us, politely, to tone down...ie chill out..lol. I've gotten so many of these in the past, but I think they are still good.PBCs were a great teaching tool.
Even though Dr. Bob was draconian in his mathmatical forumalas for enforcing a code of civility, I learned some priceless lessons on how to interact with others, and how the choice of words matter. Also, there is a difference between debate and counter-arguing with personal insults. I have been much less defensive and take more time transcribing my thoughts into words - all because of Robert Hsiung.
I still drop the doctor a line every now and then - real short. I like to see how he is enjoying life and to thank him for keeping Psycho-Babble online. I think he would experience great reward if we thanked him and extended to him our appreciation - TODAY.
- ScottSome see things as they are and ask why.
I dream of things that never were and ask why not.The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
