Versiontracker's overzealous comment filtering
Speaking of Cocktail and censorship, it's been noted that over at Versiontracker, the venerable Mac software-tracking site, the word "cocktail" – even when used harmlessly in context for a comment regarding the actual Cocktail application – gets mangled in VT's profanity filter, turning cocktail into *censored*tail.
Oh, fer chissakes. Is that really necessary? Have we really sunk so low that profanity bots now destroy the name of a wonderful system utility, just because a bunch of silly children (and far too many silly adults, I'm sure) feel compelled to type "naughty" words on public commenting systems? Whatever happened to "Sticks and stones can break my bones, but words can never hurt me?"
Grrrrrrr.....
