Of course we live in a society that holds the individual over the group in the US. We revere individual rights, or used to to some degree. So part of that is people feeling like they own the road, blab on a cell phone loudly, talk in movie theaters, etc, etc. Doesn't give them any excuse at all though.
When I was in Italy a few years ago, for instance, you drive in the right lane instead of the left, passing, lane. Everyone was doing that. No numbnuts poking along in the fast lane. My personal pet peeve lol. Italians are famous for their hand gestures too.
Times change... I bet our discourse would seem crude to someone from the early 1900's even though we hold ourselves to what we believe is a higher standard than the rest of the rabble. Some change is good, some not so like everything else.
Chivalry and courtesy are waning. Come to think of it I see verbal fingers flying here all the time. Et tu Brute?

Kudos to those here with information AND a civil tongue... Kevin
