Jesus said, "If your right hand offends *YOU*, cut it off."  Doesn't say
anything about if it offends anyone else. :-) Just a quip, but maybe a
serious one.  You still have to prove that it is a behavioural problem.  So
far, no one has.  Maybe no one will.  I kind of doubt it.  In any case, if
you can prove that it is a behavioral problem, DO IT NOW!
