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.
