agreed. telling people to leave! I hate to do it but if it is required I will. My friends have a coffeehouse and one night a young man came in with his shirt undone to inpress the ladies I guess. I asked him to button up his shirt or leave, before he got to the counter. he left. He couldn't have it his way so he left. Andrew "How Rude!"
