Man, get a grip. Have  a sense of Humour. I was just getting in on your
string of thoughtless comments.

I have no probs at all with the use of the term pom.

"Abo" though is a derogitory term when used in that way,  and working in
aboriginal welfare I do find it slightly offensive. No enough to have a
serious go at you though.

Lighten up and stay on topic.
