"Brian Denley" wrote in message . .. Well you started the name calling. As far as the term redneck is concerned, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redneck -- Brian Denley http://home.comcast.net/~b.denley/index.html The original meaning refers to poor working class white folk. I guess we cant have any of those. BH The sun burnt farmer's necks are the meaning I'd grown up with. Up until the time of Archie Bunker, of course... ========================================= A slang term, usually for a rural white southerner who is politically conservative, racist, and a religious fundamentalist (see fundamentalism). This term is generally considered offensive. It originated in reference to agricultural workers, alluding to how the back of a person's neck will be burned by the sun if he works long hours in the fields. http://www.answers.com/topic/redneck ========================================== mike |
