[Shotimes] f-bomb unmasked

[bobsteig@att.net]

While I completely agree, I'm afraid that the rest of the world is passing us 
by. The downward spiralling standards of decorum of our society, while quite 
often amusing to me, would have my between the wars era parents rolling in 
their graves. Truth be told, they were mortified at some of my youthful 
behaviors as I am sometimes shocked and dismayed at what I am seeing and 
hearing today. But then again, isn't that what they mean by 'a brave new 
world'?

Best, Bob (BB-NYC '89)

Mike,

Interesting, but I still say the "F" word is not for public 
use and not for use in polite conversation.

I wrote a letter to the author, expressing my view, I hope, 
with some humor.

Not that I never use the word, but public use and use on 
broadcast should still and forever be considered as bad as 
use of the "N" word.
