Sorry, Antonio. If that read like I was singling you out for anything, it certainly wasn't my intention and I apologise. I just meant "can we (as in all of us) dial back on the intensity of the profanity". I don't disagree with what the OP said (Res I think?), nor even how he/she said it. It was, after all, an immediately and perfectly understood message. But that kind of chatter gets ugly fast in places like this, and this list already has a burden to carry, y'know?
