[Tfug] Another CC* weighs in....

[Jeff Coy]

Perhaps I should refer you to this page:

   http://www.tfug.org/aup.html

The aup specifically prohibits "Foul language"  If you look here:

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foul_language

you'll see that "hell" is listed.

the list aup also specifically prohibits "Referencing someone based on sex,
race, religion, etc in a negative tone."  I would take calling religious
folks as "nut jobs" as exactly that.

Now, again, is it really such a big deal to try to keep the subject line
clean, considering the AUP?

Please also note- I don't mind swearing at all.  Nor am I religious.  I
could add piles of quotes to your 2 (which I've seen before).  But I still
think it's perfectly reasonable to respect such a simple request.
