But we so love to recoil with indignation when we have a demonstration
of a problem. Why should only the moderator be so privileged?
Anyone offended by real demonstrations of the possibilities is
reading the wrong list. Somewhat like a coroner complaining about
murder victims. Let's get real! This list is about security
and real examples are going to be offensive to the public at large.
If you personally take offense, go read another list.
