I understand, Ian is attempting to introduce the subject of manners in society in a lighthearted way, and it worked.
But on a serious note, bad manners can actually become a calamity by their absence.

Road rage; the newest sport on the block, which exercises all the negatives good manners were originally designed to avoid.

Under the cloak of instant justice, and its replacement rules totally lacking in the old social norms of traditional manners and courtesy, an individual may now act out his most dire ego fantasy, on an unsuspecting motorist or pedestrian, deemed the enemy.

STOP PRESS! Off Topic: ASSANGE in the Slammer

This is an outrage.

Does not the British legal system know that Julian is above the laws that govern we ordinary mortals.

Jules, you peasants should be reminded, is an international symbol Higher than Gandhi. He is the Messiah, the Second Coming, higher than Prince, President, Pope or Pell.

So Jules skipped bail for 7 years. Maybe he lost his appointment pad.

Look on the bright side - he'll get more sunlight.
