But agree: past time for decency to make a comeback. It's an underrated human quality. <br /><br />Jamie: apropos of nothing: found a little tidbit re WHouse pastry chef's memoirs -- thought you might like it. My favorite: Prince Charles being served a teabag and hot water during a visit with Reagan. When asked why he wasn't drinking it -- he'd never seen a teabag before; didn't know what to do with it. I guess tea always appears freshly made and in nice china in his realm. <br /><br />http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/02/03/AR2007020301763.html<br /><br />Maybe I'll post this on CList too; not sure it would interest anyone beyond you, me and Sheila...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20306397.post-63050666693441034262007-02-04T23:55:00.000-08:002007-02-04T23:55:00.000-08:00Linda,
