Subject: Re: thank you . . . thank you

This evening I witnessed a Thank you response to a Thank you" in a Dairy
Queen. The second thanker stressed YOU. Now that the topic has been
mentioned, I realize I've heard these interchanges, with stress as here
described. I think I do it myself. Sometimes I say "No problem" if the
implication of the original thanks is that it might have been some trouble
for me to do whatever I was being thanked for.
