I don't see a problem with changing it to "free lunch". :)
I hope I need not remind you that it *is* the holy month of Ramadan, and therefore fasting is expected. A devout Muslim might well be offended by your tacit encouragement to break the fast by eating a free lunch! 'Course beer's no better there. I think "free as in beer" is a well-enough established term that we can use it safely... or do we have to start self censoring "drunk with power" and such like? Go with your first instinct and use "free as in beer". It's the right thing to do. My bet is that the original complainer was just taking the piss. If he/she wasn't, there's guarantied lots to offend within the PG collection itself, so maybe its better that such people self-select out. How are we gonna feel when people start whingeing about the actual *content*? Do we start Bowdlerizing *all* of it? ============================================================ Gardner Buchanan <gbuchana@rogers.com> Ottawa, ON FreeBSD: Where you want to go. Today.
