Cecil - Before I go on, I will ask this: Keep TGF out of this - it is not fair to Dr. Jose's subscribers to bring our spats to their Forum. I will not copy TGF in my response. Nor will I post to GoaNet2.

Let me know. > > Cecil > (Loser of the first round) > Cecil - please forward to me any post of mine which supports your argument. If I am wrong I will be the FIRST to state so. I've never held back an apology when one is due from me (that's a guy thing, I think). However, the "adult words" issue is DEAD. The filter is in place and is NOT LIKELY to be removed, so I WILL NOT DEMAND that the filter be removed. GoaNet has been around for many years without those 10-or-so words and people have managed to communicate anyway. Of course I remember that I encouraged you to use an asterisk to fool the filter in order to use the B-word and I further stated that there were some legitimate (groan) uses for the word in polite discussion, but that doesn't mean that if others use the asterisk to mask foul language or personal attacks that that would be acceptable. So there is always the possibility of human judgment to overcome an inhuman (as in computer) filter WHEN THE USE IS LEGITIMATE. Surely you can understand the difference.
