My personal opinion is that such f-bombs really have no place on what is
a font of software dissemination.

My point of view is a fallacy however.  Consider a new, viable
programming language which has a syntax based entirely on GG-Allin
lyrics.  

Obviously this would disgust a decent programmer (aren't we all
decent :)  

One would be pressed to prove that this new language has no scientific
value only in order to avoid his disgusting poetry, which could be
difficult (and perhaps pointless, which would be worse than difficult)

But I think I am fuzzing out beyond what the point of this originally
was... yes - this discussion reminds me of both Wadler's law and the
phenomenon of Cargo Cults, as according to the Wiki Wiki web (see
http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?CargoCult) -- what I mean by this is that however
it might be labelled on a software archive, such a program is surely and
deeply ed.

Well then, send it up to the great Hackage machine! If the f-bombs are  
allowed...


I think my package names are about to get alot less SFW...

I haven't decided whether or not to put it on hackage (it is rather
silly after all) but I have a link to a cabalized package and
instructions on how to work it in an entry on my blog, here:

Enjoy the ridiculousness.
