How do you reply when people say "Thank you"? Hi All,
I want to know how do you reply when people say "Thank you". In my country, we just reply "You're welcome", except "You're welcome" what you would say in your country?

Re: How do you reply when people say "Thank you"? Excuse me while I drag over my little soapbox, but I find "no problem" to be SO ungracious. I would love for this to disappear as a response to thanks.
I'm not a teacher, but I write for a living. Please don't ask me about 2nd conditionals, but I'm a safe bet for what reads well in (American) English.
