My fault. I posted a query that included the phrase "bitch-o-gram" (watch,
this one will bounce now too), and you included it in your reply.
I suppose "gripe-o-gram" would have gone through. But I agree, GE Capitol
may have stepped over some PC line that is a bit silly.
I'm tempted to start sending them test mail to explore what they do and
don't consider acceptable. Do you think "He's nuts!" would survive the cut
(so to speak)?
Either that, or give up colloquial English.
Nah! Their loss.
