I don't dwell on it, but it irritates me every time.
Somebody says "Thank you." The other person responds, "Thank YOU."
What the **** happened to just saying "You're welcome"?
Is this some kind of oneupmanship bull****?
Thank you for your attention.

I've noticed that also. Hardly anyone says it on air any more.

Your welcome

Vic, you need to get a boat. Clearly you don't have enough to keep
you busy. :-)

And BTW, you're welcome.

I wonder if no one says "Your welcome" because he walks around saying
"what the ****?"

You owe me a new keyboard.

I get so upset by these spoofers, that I think I am going to make more
crossposts between rec.boats and numerous unrelated newsgroups, because
at least that is not detrimental to rec.boats. This group needs some
new blood, and that is always a good way to get some new posters who
enjoy boating as much as i do.

Sorry, maybe I can send you some of the extra keyboards I have in my
basement. If you can send me your home address and telephone number, I
will send it out this afternoon. I am here to be helpful.

Oh by the way, Thank you very much.
