========================================================================
To the AT&T Webmaster:
I tried to log into your Olympic site.  I received the following message:
"We're sorry, but your entry for field Best Event(shooting) appeared to 
contain words of phrases that are obscene, inappropriate, or on a disallowed
subject. 
Your profile update was rejected."
And, for that matter, if you log into the AT&T Olympic web site using the 
word 
"shooting" for your entry as "favorite sport" your registration is refused 
due 
to 
language that is  "obscene," "inappropriate," or "disallowed."
I will immediately do the following things:
1) Never use any, and I mean "ANY" AT&T product or service again.  (Neither
will any 
member of my family, as we are all shooters and NRA members.)
2) Publish this information to my shooting friends on the Internet, at every
web site or 
in every newsgroup I can think of.
3) Send a letter to the editor of my local newspaper.
4) Notify the National Rifle Association.
