Being responsible for the title mentioned above, I think that I  
have to apologize if it sounds offensive to other posters. It was 
ironical, and aimed at an adult audience; I didn't think that it 
could be shocking. But what worries me especially, is the 
possibility that it could be used against the group. I really don't 
know what to do; if HPfGU happened to get into trouble because of 
me, I would cancel my membership imediately. I hope that the mods 
will tell me if there is any problem, and I make one more time 
apologies,
Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa,
