 Just for my information -- what's cunt ?

It's a slang term for the female pudenda or genitals, also used as a 
derogatory term for a female herself; it is considered the ultimate in 
offensive words of that sort (I have seen women who are comfortable with a 
range of language that makes _me_ uncomfortable cringe when they hear the 
word.) Other American English synonyms: pussy, twat, quim, hootchie, cooze, . 
. . and the list goes on. It is said that the importance of something in a 
culture is proportional to how many words there are in the language to 
describe it.  We have lots of words in the language to use for penis and 
masturbation also.

 You have maybe some reasons to be upset but insulting people and

I am not upset at all, I used a deliberate trick to load a thought out 
position by a possible user, and just added as much gunpowder I could.

Then I got irritated by the responses - that there should exist one single 
law that define for all coming humans how to interpret words. That I think is

Before you go ranting, what is a newbie doing running Cooker?  I can
understand experts trying to imitate the actions of a newbie.  And an
expert would have probably tried looking through the source of the
program (from another system if necessary) to see if they could find any
evidence of bad-faith info gathering.  Regardless, a professional in the
field wouldn't use phrases such as very fucking stupid of you.
At the very least, you should have asked the question of transmission in
a professional (or at least non-crude) manner.  As is, I'd rather not
read any further posts from you.

You are reacting in a very omnipotent manner, as if your interpretation of 
the word fuck is the 'right one'  and is met by everybody - truly pathetic.

The three most beatiful words to me is cunt, dick and fuck - as the only

I think that the data collected is important, but every step taken to assure

If you are offended then you have somewhat established what is right and
