Li'l Puppets' reply to Dave: Suppose one was at a live tournament, came and sat down at the table with extended hand and the opponent never looked one in the eye or smiled, nodded or extended their hand. The opponent might have a reason for that, but it is rampant here on this site. Granted, this is not "live" face to face - but the action is happening live. And in an e-mail tournament with no "speaking" what-so-ever, is not the norm either. Li'l Puppet feels that it is today's crop of creatures who are so self absorbed in their smart phones, video games and selfies that has taken society down the road to ruin. Present company excluded.
