Lighten up? Moralize? Are you kidding? I wasn't personally attacking you; All I did was make an observation in terms of words which you've been quoted as using by several GCers here, including myself:

I will concede that you didn't actually
say that "wearing letters after graduation is wrong" (my apologies for the inexact paraphrase of that post). However, you did imply that the practice of wearing letters (in any circumstance) was, for lack of a better phrase, "not normal" ("We didn't do it that way at my school", the "Nationals=franchise" comment, etc., etc.), and the "third world" comment sealed it for me.
However, your response was a bit salty. Maybe my comment hit a little close to home (however unintentionally). If so, that's a personal issue.
Given your last few posts, you would do well to follow your own advice. Remember that this all started with the "
third world" comment.
