You apparently have not been in a grade school lately??? My children are
around more vile language at school than I am at work. So, who are we trying
to protect on this list??

Heck, i'd take that stuff as sarcasm, because I'm sure you're smart
enough to know whats appropriate in a public list where the ages range
from late-60s (and older) to 14 (and younger.)

But just in case I'm way off base in my evaluation of your troll-bait,
pretty much anything that you wouldn't say while standing in front
of an auditorium full of elementary students is off limits here.

We shouldn't need to point out George Carlin's "7 dirty words" as the
be-all-end-all of profane and obtuse.

Heck, i'm an actor. Nothing is profane to me. But at least I can act
civil and keep my language professional.

Mike? Anything else you want to add to this for the sophomores out there?
