Thanks Jim, I was about to comment as well but you beat me to it.

There are some of us who find this language coarse and offensive, and for various reasons choose to avoid it in our own speech.

In addition, there may be children who view these forums.

And last but not least, it is a good custom in our culture (that is sadly dieing but should not be allowed to) that foul language should never be used in the presence of a lady. I know there are many women who view these forums. -TO you women who read this, please don't take offense to this statement, this custom is as a sign of honor and respect due to women.
