RE: aio vp confusion again
Certain swear words have a different amount of severity dependent on the Country and Culture they are used in. The particular work used is considered extremely vulgar and disgusting in England and as such I took exception to it's use. I'd hate to have to consider leaving a technical news list because certain individuals cannot curb their language when sending stuff to the International Community. All I'm asking is for common courtesy. Oh I forget some of you are Americans and probably don't know what courtesy is.
