Did anyone hear that some bureaucrat, in charge of purchasing for the
city of Los Angles, has sent a letter to all of the city's suppliers
of equipment, asking them not to use the "insenstive" words "master"
and "slave" in relation to equipment sold to the city? Maybe this
means that there will be a glut of politically incorrect surplus
computer equipment and documentation available there. Of course,
they'd probably recycle it into scrap so as to not risk offending
purchasers... too bad they don't just recycle the political
correctness into something else.
