I bet that's it since the .ms has that language in some of the
optional (but commented) sections. I guess the survival skill to
learn here is to sanitize the crap out of anything that might get sent
there. And since we're not meant to know the full list of words, I
suspect common sense is the only guidance available here as to what
words to avoid.
I think I know what happened, and it's my fault. When Mark sent me
his (very well done) opinion.ms draft, I had to work on the formatting
of the interface table a bit and left the original behind as
opinion.ms-. But although the redaction script is programmed to
ignore opinion.ms, it doesn't give opinion.ms- the same treatment, so
the "proprietary" boilerplate in that file triggered the clampdown.
I've removed opinion.ms-. Let's see whether that unclogs the drain.
