After an Associated Press article hit the news wires about a sign in her restaurant's window that says, “Screaming children will NOT be tolerated!,” the owner of Olde Salty on the Carolina Beach boardwalk has been bombarded with phone calls from television and newspaper reporters, as well as from random citizens.
“I think people like it,” she said.
For proof, Armes walked over to the restaurant's answering machine and pushed a button. Of the 40 or so messages, she said, two are negative.
When our daughter was born, we wouldn't have dared to inflict her crying jags on fellow restaurant-goers. We never had to leave, but were fully prepared to do so.
It was all about being courteous.
