: who using language that might offend

1) If a person believes that language could be offensive (which I do), I suggest the following:
A) If Anon e-mail is available, contact the individual via e-mail and POLITELY express your opinion, state you case, and request modification or removal of said wordings. If there is no response in a couple of days, then e-mail Hank.

2) By posting your findings here on the forum, you could have defeated your purpose. Now more people will be attracted to the offensive notes.

3) If a questionable link is posted, then a practice illustrated by a former Georger, 'Naked George', would be to place 'warnings' on the titles of any of his questionable links. I agree with that.

Thank you for your thought provoking post. I would be curious to what others think.

Good Luck & Happy Georgering.
