Re: ans Dauber



But my other point is that YOU ARE MISSING THE POINT. Words like hell and 
shit can be used in really innocuous ways ("oh, shit, I forgot that 
meeting"). This is a distraction -- the real concern I have felt has come 
from words no one would object to normally -- LIKE CORN COB. Ok, onwards 
and upwards, and I look forward to meeting you in the fall.  If you want 
to argue peoople should use informal linguistic styles, should be thick 
skinned, etc, that's cool, we can agree to disagree. Im just saying you 
should let those arguments fall where they may, go down defending them if 
you wish -- but please dont stake my liberation on your linguistic 
choices. Im a big girl now, I usually take care of myself. (I would put a 
smiley here but I forgot how to make one.)
