I gave the wrong impression here. I am perfectly comfortable conversing with
any level of profanity. I do so daily elsewhere. However, because I once had
my posting priveledge suspended for the use of a word describing the excrement
of a male cow on l.o-t.d it has made me uncomfortable. I consider it my own
weakness in light of a systemic one. I didn't mean to be slamming you for
it...it was just a request. It would make me more comfortable. (And thanks
for spelling asterisk right for me :-)
What is profane content?
Discussion Group Terms...point number five says "(do not) Post or transmit
any...obscene, vulgar, pornographic, profane, or indecent information of any
kind..." I guess that the discussion of porn has at least skirted some of
that, but I really do think that we've stayed clear of naughtyness.
