"Actually, thinking about most of the restaurants here in town (except for the Chinese take-outs)(or except for the quieter vegetarian place where \"sanitation\" is a word not yet discovered by the BOH staff from what I hear from those who have been BOH) my picnic table is actually a much more polite place. Especially if you don't want your own ears or your kids ears filled every five seconds with ongoing shouted conversations filled with what we used to call \"foul language\". (But I hear that being offended by that sort of language used in a ongoing patter is out of style, so it just may be me that it bothers.)  Here, it is the restaurants themselves and the supposed \"grown-ups\" who mostly make the ruckus. I'm not sure what message this sends to younger children who continue to see this when walking into a place to eat. Heh. It's not just the college students, either. I never really realized just how very much professors (most usually the ones that are shortish men with longish tousled hair) love to hear themselves profess. Loudly.   \n"
