[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 233474, member: 3444"] In the Spanish language, the typical reply to "gracias" (thank you) is "de nada" (of nothing, it's nothing, don't mention it) which could also be stretched to mean "no problem". I agree that too many people have drifted away from saying "you're welcome" in response to a thank you. If Andy Rooney hasn't written about this yet (and I'd be surprised if he hasn't), maybe you should contact him with an idea for an aritcle :D [/QUOTE]
