hi all if there are no distinctly condscending words and no condescension intended or even considered by the sender and a message is seen by some recipients as condescending could it be that the condescension is in the eye of the recipient and not the sender? how then can the sender correct the misunderstanding? perceptions are our choice is our will to resolve a conflict or is it to advance one? janet janet paterson: an akinetic rigid subtype, albeit perky, parky pd: 55/41/37 cd: 55/44/43 tel: 613 256 8340 email: [log in to unmask] smail: 375 Country Street, Almonte, Ontario, Canada, K0A 1A0 a new voice: http://www.geocities.com/janet313/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
