To the editor:
Pursuant to Pete Crooker’s comments [letter, March 03] about “That Maine Attitude,” I think it might help if vacationers from out of state left the attitude of authoritative familiarity behind. I have never encountered anyone who has been less than friendly, helpful and polite when I have visited the islands in the Casco Bay. I don’t consider my personality to be so sparkling that people feel the need to be near me, so I wonder why it is that when I visit, people invite me back. Could it be that I’m polite, mind my own business, and enjoy all that Maine has to offer without criticizing the way things are done?
