Is anyone else getting tired of listening to this discussion?  It seems to
me that what started out as a discussion has now degenerated to just plain
name-calling. (And not very nice names!).  Since it is illegal to use 
profanity over the air waves because anyone can intercept it, does the same
apply to the computer nets?  I don't particularly care to read articles using
such epithets as p**ker-head and s**t-for-brains.  Should we start a new, 
moderated group for this?  How about rec.profanity or soc.sticks_and_stones?
