Yes, and the fact that they were brought up thinking that any contact
with strangers is a bad thing and they may be abducted. It`s sad when
you see how the younger group has largely lost the ability to
effectively and outwardly communicate.
It`s darn hard to see someone in any Corvette wave at you when their
windows are rolled up. But, I do and I look at everyone I see to see if
they wave. My experience has been that most do if they see you.

That`s interesting Ric because my experience has been largely the same
from behind the wheel of my `63. C6 & C5 owners and to a lesser extent
C4 owners give me the impression that they are waiting to see if I give
them the wave first.

Dad, them`s fighting words.
I`ll meet you out behind the woodpile at 12:00 high.
Bring a sandwich, we`ll do lunch.
Any day you want to take a ride in a 15 year old car that`ll still do
175mph *all*day*long*, just let me know.

You know, I`ve noticed a little shaking when I take my ZR1 4 wheeling,
but I`ve never had a problem when I drive it on the street.
4 wheeling, get it? That`s funny.

I`ve only had my Z for about 8 months, and she`s my first `Vette.
Every time I get behind the wheel, it`s like I`ve never driven it
before. I`ve still not been able to wipe the smirk off of my face.
I`ll be sure to keep the back end of my car polished and clean so that
you`ll recognize a ZR1. It`s the only view you`ll ever get.
Here`s my wave... ////
