And yet still others might be offended by your forceful imposition of superstition on them. Not everyone takes the Christian Bible literally, if they even believe in it. And yet still others might take offense to your narrow-minded assumption that it was even in reference to anything remotely religious or anti-religious. Symbols formerly considered 'evil' or whatever are often used in counterculture -- liking a 'dark-sounding' band or something doesn't make one Satanic. Alternatively (though not very likely), maybe he was simply commemorating when Percy Sledge's "When a Man Loves a Woman" topped the charts, or the first descent of the "Great West Canyon," or maybe even the Marine Corp's Operation Jay in Vietnam -- in June of 1966. The point is that you don't know, you're assuming. That, and that this whole thing is a stupid tangent. The FAK and mailing list charter and all that make the point that this is not a tech support forum. Your problems with any individual here are moot points -- you need to be somewhere else. So stop being a troll.
