Why hurt Muslims' feelings with creative expressions such as
Islamofascists?
Why hurt Richard's feelings for his use of an innocuous political term? That
term has no more stigma than calling someone a Democrat. You say labels
hurt, yet had no problem trying to label Richard as an ahole.

Maybe we should change it to "This page intentionally left almost
completely blank," to be more technically accurate :)

cists, how do we stop people from coining derogatory phrases using our
religions, ethnicity, and color? This is a land of the free and the brave.
However, some self-regulation is in order.

Hi Susan,
In the field of classified documentation the phrase "This page is
intentionally blank" is used to denote that there is no content on that
page and it is not a printing mitake. The strange thing is that the
blank page also carried the classification so you ended up with a page
classifie
Too often readers will suspect that there was a printing error if
there isn't SOME content on the page. Having headers and footers on
the page with no text between them only makes this type of person even
more prone to suspicion. Putting an "Intentionally Blank" notice on
the page helps to reduc

The short answer is "no," no more than for any other book. Blank pages
are expected and accepted in books that use the convention of starting
chapters on right pages.
I think the labels started being used years ago when military and
mil-spec manuals were issued and updated with change pages. Beca
No, not really, except in certain circles.
The main thing is regarding printed/photocopied material, that if you
see a blank (totally blank) page, that you do not suspect the
printing/photocopying mechanism of skipping a page, which was rather
usual some years ago, when printers and photocopying
