The notion of changing anything for the mere mention of political correctness is abhorrent, but OTOH, I do hate anything smelling of Naziism. And, finally, although I don't want to see changes in our web page done for PC, I really, really dislike the way our web pages are set up now, it's just so much harder to get thengs, so much more unpleasant, but I don't think I know enough about human-design to be able to give you a reasonable explanation of why I dislike our web page setup. I just do. Might that be a data point for you? I betcha a lot of others feel just exactly as I do. > Ted > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
