I don't want to stretch this thing on to infinity but... 
The problem is that prudish teachers/parents/admins *WILL* believe that 
the kids are not "hip". And they *WILL* cut off the Internet feeds to 
schools etc because of that. It doesn't matter if the y are right or 
wrong. Perceptions are everything. 
OTOH... It's a lost cause anyway. Some people will do anything to boost 
their egos; and since they lack taste and the responsible attitude that 
maturity brings an unsupervised medium brings out the worst in them. You 
should see the Flames area in our local Mac BBS!
