So let me get this straight, Mary. It disturbs you to see words like "damn" and "hell" in print (unless they are in quotation marks), but words like "sh_t", "f_ck", and... oh well... "motherf_cker" - am I not being subtle here by omitting a vowel - those words don't disturb you? -- Avi Yashar Windows XP Pro SP2 and The Bat!
