Private boys school here. Boy did they have control, do it or your life. Sure made us toe the line including dancing classes.

Glad I had to go there, got me straightened out.

Politics and diplomacy *may* be mutually exclusive.

Just an opinion, y'know /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jester.gif

 

[Nunyas]

you definitely don't have to be a politician to be ... tactful /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

 

[tony barnhill]

No, but can you separate diplomacy from tact?

 

[Nunyas]

hmmmm... why... I dunno; can you?

 

[tony barnhill]

oops, should'a said "can <u>one</u> separate..."

 

[DrEntropy]

Retief.... Fritz Leiber.

One *CAN*... Just don't expect the rest to understand and agree.

 

[Nunyas]

either way, it's still a good question... personally don't think you can sepparate diplomacy from tactfulness.. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

 

[jlaird]

You can seperate can diplomacy from tact.

Someone once said "speak softly (diplomacy) and carry a big stick (tact).

Condolese Rice seems to be on the verge of separating diplomacy & tact - but we can't get into politics here...just philosophy
