If we are to be intellectually honest, forthright, and fair, we should simply append "biz." to all newsgroup names. (except, perhaps, alt, since I don't have any way to see them) Rec.humor.funny is no worse a violator than is any of the comp.os groups, or evn some of the rec.* groups. Aside to jfh: I've heard the bit about half-brained engineers so many times from MBA's who believe it that I am NOT amused. If engineers were a protected class, I'd think about being a real pain. Of course, this makes the point that ANYONE will think something or other offensive, eh?

If you don't think that, what's your problem? -- It's a Small World, After All! *Mail to jj@alice.att.com or alice!jj We're Not Satisfied, At All! *HASA, Athiest Curmudgeon Division Gonna Build One Not So Small *Copyright alice!jj 1989, all rights reserved, except As This Small, Small, World! *transmission by USENET and like free facilities granted.
