That's funny!

That text wasn't there though when the software blocked us.

Reminds me of some ultra fascist censorship code we were obliged to
write for the paranoid folks at Cartoon Network. One mother
complained that the site accused here four year old daughter of being
obscene when she chose 'titanic' as her password, someone else was
blacklisted for the sentence 'I like eating donuts whilst watching
TV'.

What's web penetration like in Scunthorpe anyway?
