Mac, I would have to say, with the way people behave today...Chivalry is dead and buried. We might try to hold on to a few of those ideals, but I think that for the most part, That code will never be followed in whole again.

Wouldn't want to be anywhere else. :)

Here's the problem... Chivalry is always sold as a romantic notion... but when you read this code... it reads like something you'd hear from an islamic nutjob, or any fundamentalist.

It's like the 10 commandments. Some good ideas, some full of crap.

Agreed... sad though.

Turned into a "Me First" Society lacking in Honor and Respect.

We're all just Peasants, Sheep, Ducks... and will abide by the Laws of Thievery...What's yours Today will be mine Tomorrow.

I don't think there is a field big enough for all the manure you just
spouted.
