i dont know, the whole "PEACE" as a greeting/closing bugs me. it demeans the word.

when you are greeting a person(or closing a meeting) and you use phrases like "hows it goin?" or "good morning" all you are really saing is "im alive and so are you"

when you ask someone hows it going, you dont really expect them to respong with "man, its pretty shitty, now im goignt o tell you all about how bad its going, so i can make you feel like shit too"

by using the word "peace" in this way, the word loses its meaning.
