Hello, Carol!
It was 20 Dec 03 08:53, when Carol Shenkenberger scribbled to Michael Haritonov:
MH>> Yes, I have a fobia about political correctness. I hate it. Will xxCar
MH>> tell us about this part of American life?
CS> Well, it's not so much a part of American life as it may sound from the
CS> Houtside. To be 'politically correct' just means to be polite mostly.
CS> An example would be to call a person who is a Cherokee Indian, a 'Native
CS> HAmerican' as that is the term they prefer. To be unpolitically correct
Politically incorrect? :)
CS> would Hbe to call them a 'red man' which is considered a bit rude.
It was reported they've prohibited (in California) usage of the computer
term "Master/Slave" as for HDDs :) Is that true?
Best wishes,
Mix.
