I can't comment too much on your experiences, but I will say this:
I've heard more rude and improper radio talk in the last two years
than I had in the previous ten. The rudeness that has invaded our
society is starting to penetrate the cockpit environment, and *that*
is a shame.

It's because we're all getting older (Baby Boom Generation) and we're
becoming Grumpy Old Men... Of course, we also have to balance this with
being Dirty Old Men In Training...

Then again there are some of us out here who completed the DOM training by
age 6

I was also much more of a DOM at that age than today. I have simply
presumed that I must have shared some ancestry with Mr. Ford Prefect--of
"Hitchhiker's Guide" infamy.
