To whom it may concern,

I have worked with many different types of people in a number of different
jobs over the years from data processing management to blue collar
industrial work and have heard it all, but I do find low level language
offensive and quite unnecesary. 

HOWEVER, I do understand it because I used to spew venom every where I
went. But nowadays (even I) am a little less poisonous. 

Thanks for listening,
