If I had to bitch about all the stuff that offends me on a day-to-day basis
(dogs shitting on my lawn, inconsiderate drivers, pompous, sanctimonious
'christians' etc) I'd soon find myself without any friends. Then I'd have to
resort to sending inane complaints to news-groups to keep my mind occupied.

And apologies to those thousands around the world who are obliged to read
this news group in order to obtain harassment. Hopefully you will soon be
able to obtain harassment in your own country and in you own language. Let
us pray...

    Guys,
    This type of "humour" is actually offensive to a large population (we
are on air world-wide, ok?) and has no place in a professional user group
such as this.
    Cheap shots about religious figures may constitute harassment in many
legal jurisdictions around the world, when the material ends up in company
or government email banks.  But it shouldnt be necessary to refer to legal
restrictions - commonsense and courtesy are surely sufficient in an educated
international group.
    Regards to all,
    Michael Asten
