Man, this leaves me confused as to how to respond. The notion of
changing anything for the mere mention of political correctness is
abhorrent, but OTOH, I do hate anything smelling of Naziism. And,
finally, although I don't want to see changes in our web page done for
PC, I really, really dislike the way our web pages are set up now, it's
just so much harder to get thengs, so much more unpleasant, but I don't
think I know enough about human-design to be able to give you a
reasonable explanation of why I dislike our web page setup.
I just do. Might that be a data point for you? I betcha a lot of
others feel just exactly as I do.
