Paul,Thank you for responding so diplomatically.Believe it or not, I didn't fall off the punkin truck yesterday. I've visited online forums of one ilk or another since 1988. Saying it's not as bad as it used to be is as flagrant an argument as saying you no longer beat your dog as often.The totality of my point is the irony of being so paranoid about language - even redacting symbolic euphemisms - while simultaneously tolerating behaviors that are much more likely to send potential hobbyists fleeing.In truth, I don't give a Clydesdale's nose one way or the other. After twenty years in the Marines, it's doubtful I'll be put off by anything said here, no matter what words (or symbles) a poster chooses. I'll confess, however, that I'm taken aback by the attitudes of a few visitors who seem destined to offer little more than leaving their scent on the perimeter.Lynda
