[PLUG] Vulgarity: Was: Steve Duin's column of 5/21/02

[Russ Johnson]

This makes my point from a few months back regarding professionalism and 
how the "linux" crowd is perceived. At the time I was publicly pummeled by 
several on this list for "stepping on their free speech". Maybe so, but 
folks won't hire you if you insist on spouting vulgarities at every turn.

On top of that, this list is archived in public. What or how you say things 
today may come back to haunt you tomorrow.
