The Gulf Coast Community Foundation of Venice, Venice, Florida developed the following "Ten Keys to Civility" their web address is www.gulfcoastcf.org. I think this sums up how we should all act when dealing with others. Let me know if you can think of any that might be aadded.
I would like to thank Krista Jagerson Knapp of C&C Home Services, Altoona, Iowa for alerting me to the list. Their web address is http://www.iowapestandhandyman.com. Check them out if you get the chance.
