Personally am not offended by it, but some might be.
This list is about programming in Euphoria,
(which generates enough religious fervor of its own)
It would be a shame to lose anyone because they
felt uncomfortable because of this. Let's stick to offending
people who write bad code ;)
Speaking of respect: How many people are posting
in their second or third language? How many of these
are still in high school? How many of us would be able
to answer if they posted messages in Spanish, Dutch,
Portuguese or Chinese? Hmmm...? Think about it.
