Cams, lights, revoulutions, and the weather(long)

[mr.utility at highstream.net (David Utley)]

So...  I take it this is a P.C. list?  :-\

Obviously, I was not offended...  All I took from it was that you are not 
gay...  

Did that statement actually offend anyone here on the list?  Seriously, email 
me off-list if you prefer, I am very curious if this offended anyone, purely 
as a matter of satisfying my curiousity...  I do not mean to start an argument 
over it...  :-)
