[78-L] hoo-HAA dispute

[David Lennick]

Jesus was once on the forbidden list, which made it a bit difficult to ask 
about pianist Jesus Maria Sanroma or even certain Christmas carols. Ron Fial 
would know whether this was an issue with the server at that time or just 
because of some nuisance problems. "Schweitzer" was once a banned word as well. 
Oddly enough, most of the cuss words do get through now..we just have good 
taste and don't use 'em.
