<font face="Arial">Well, what has annoyed me much more than the "ad"
itself, is Terry's assertion that if we don't find it funny it's
because we are 'politically correct' and have a deficient sense of
humour.<br>
<br>
It is easily possible to draw a distinction between "political
correctness" and gracious speech with good manners.<br>
<br>
While we might wish to avoid calling a spade a multipurpose
terraforming utensil, it is not necessary either to call it a
ruddy shovel.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
