Good for you! I think any unnecessary language should be reported. I for
one, don't like, but I also don't care if it's used. I can live with it,
even when directed at me, but when I know others are present, I don't
appreciate it's use. I for one rarely ever use any language like that.
Back whan I was in school, people kinda laughed any time I swore, cause
it simply didn't sound like it was me talking! I don't care when people
use language like that around me, but when others are offended, I kinda
get offended as well. Grant for one has asked and asked over and over
for people to stop that language whenever it occured, but there is
always someone who doesn't listen. This list has MANY people who share
e-mail accounts with parents, or simply don't appreciate that language,
so CUT IT OUT!!!

I say so much in one message sometimes that I could have my own list! (=

Feed back is great--if you limit your exclamitory language to non
offensive stuff, so please, consider this.
