Hi, Im new, but I did notice the conflict on the list about speech, which is a given right, I believe. I agree with Ms. Sullivan, she said it nicely. I was raised in the city and that phrase is used often, and is acceptable, alot of phrases I use are considered ok. With everything that is going on in the world around us, I think people should be more accepting of one another, the subject of how to speak is just so shallow.
