Try the Maori environment - in my previous life I had to hongi up to 500 or more in a morning sometimes and the women always do it with a kiss as well, whether they are good looking or not. So I'm used to being huggy and kissy whether or not Col is around and so far I'm still alive. As for firm handshakes, how firm? There's the old grab you and crush you types unless you get in first - typical behaviour at union/management meetings in my previous previous life.
The KBers that have shared my personal space I've had no worries with at all and I enjoyed your company when we met huh!
