What character sequence was he > talking about, specifically? I have no problem typing "f^?^?^? ^?^?uck," "f^H^H^H ^H^Huck," "fuck," or even "fire truck." Although I did have a problem with a keyboard once where the key for the letter "u" didn't work... :-) I just don't think any of those specific words or phrases are either constitutionally protected or constitutionally banned. What is constitutionally protected is the ability to put forward whatever idea you want to. The language you use to put forth that idea is not protected. But again, that's just my little opinion. I am open to the possibility that I may be incorrect, and if so then I want to know that. That's why I went to lawguru.com. But even if those specific words are constitutionally protected, it still doesn't mean that they are necessary. I mean, I say words on George Carlin's list, and other words and phrases that haven't made it to that list. But there is not a single idea that I can't express without using those words.
