SLAVE AND MASTER no more

[self_worm]

I have just heard on CNN that someone complained to the city of L.A. that the terms Master and Alave offended him, so the city of L.A. decided that computer manufactoring companies may no longer call hard drives master and slave, but rather primary and secondary. This is P.C. out of control!

The terms 'male' and 'female' for plugs will have to go as they exclude couplings by homosexual cables.

HAHA

But really, who cares about this kind of stuff. What's the big deal?

I'm offended by the term "99 Cent Big Mac," but I don't go around filing law suits.

We would request that each manufacturer, supplier, and contractor review, identify, and remove/change any identification or labeling of equipment or components thereof that could be interpreted as discriminatory or offensive in nature

So they want the entire nation to throw away all of thier computers because they might offend some one?

Los Angeles County presumably also frowns on references to ''male'' and ''female'' plumbing and electrical parts.
