Randy,
To your quote of, "Be a gentleman. Let your actions reflect your understanding of the word. And remember, the word consists of "gentle" and "man", there was a way it was put to me a long time ago and it went something like this:
"Always strive to treat a man like a gentlemen and a woman like a lady not because they act like a gentlemen or a lady, but because you are a gentleman."
Thanks for your binary monetary units, they were right on target.
Thanks for resurrecting this thread -- It sums up the spirit of the forum nicely.
