If you haven't heard this news yet, - if you swear in Middleborough,
in Mbuttachusetts [I am not there, but who knows if they screen PDML],
you can be fined $20:

The menu... err. list of the forbidden words is not announced, as it
will be "at the discretion of police".
Is "CaNikon" on that list?
Igor
PS. That reminds me of a primary school teacher telling the students:
"Please remember these words well: you should never use them!"
Interesting.
Would that decision stand up to a court challenge as violating the
First Amendment?
Just wondering - I'm anything but an expert on the US Constitution.
All I know about it is what I've seen on The West Wing :-)>
Leaving the decision of what words are forbidden "at the discretion of
the police" will probably get it tossed as *arbitrary* and *capricious*.
