    I regret that you have been offended DWFII; but, it was a practical issue. Fortunately, for both of us, I have now said all I care to on the subject.

    You really didn't offend me...I know all those words and a lot more...what offends me is that some things that ought to be offensive on this forum seem to get a pass and some things that seem a natural extension of ordinary discussion are quelled almost automatically. The fact that some subjects keep coming up over and over again despite assiduous efforts to suppress them, reminds me of a line from the movie "Little Big Man" in which the old Indian chief (Dan George) says to Dustin Hoffman something to the effect that people and things keep trying to live and the "white man" keeps trying to kill them off.

    BTW and FYI, The Wizard of BC covered this whole "seepage" issue extensively some months back and never once used language or references that were offensive.
