This list should be rated G.  There is no reason to swear in a subject 
like ZShell.  The most heated discusions are an occational Mac vs. PC 
argumenet, but it is in fun, and no swearing is involved.  We don't want 
to hear it, and the people who write the programs don't want to hear it 
either, so why do you do it?  Just say, "This game is really sweat!" or 
something instead of swearing.  And you don't need to swear to get other 
points across.  You used at least 5 swear words in the obove e-mail!  
When you swear people don't listen to you, they think your trying to act 
cool and it comes across making you look real silly.  SO DON'T DO IT!  
Some of your actions could be consitered flames and will make Mangus and 
the others real mad, including myself!
