OK, I've been adequately chastised on this subject so now it is time to
put my original comments more into context.
First a couple caveats:
1. The filter my net-nannies have on aren't blasting Darren, it is set
to just drop the offending e-mail (whether or not it is actually
offensive), and

It comes closer to meaning copulating, rather than an obscenity.

I agree that I have heard language I would consider offensive just a
