Are the list archives working? I haven't checked - but if they are, give
'em a quick check - this issue usually comes up once a year or so, and you
will see that Sellam in the past (and quite probably will be in the future,
if I'm given a bit of latitude to /assume/ here...) has been completely
unswayed by arguments posited to him to modify his particular (preferred?
;-) usage of the American language.

My question is this:

If you were offended enough by the word to use a euphemism in your response
(and a bible quote as well), why didn't you star it out or otherwise mangle
it in the reply above? ;^>
