Yes, I'm well aware of these issues, but it's my personal address book
so I can avoid many/most of them.
So you assume that you'll never meet someone from another culture?
Okay. I'm pretty sure that counts as bigoted, but sure :)
Chris: I think that remark was uncalled for. You'd made a perfectly
valid point about names not always working how we think. At that point,
I think it's up to each person to decide their own approach based on
their own knowledge of their own circumstances.
