Laurie, I found no offensive language , but I will do a study on the word you may be referring to. As for listing short replies, that seem to lead nowhere, just wait a few minutes while the other lister, finishes what he/she may be doing, collects their more fruitful thoughts and gives us something we need - like an url, address or fact. I do appreciate your concern. The list Administrator and other listers will keep us in check. Have a cup of lemon/honey/pekoe tea to relax. The world's problems will one day be still. God see us through it all.

I took it to mean he would search liked a detective or a "dick" would. I took no offense either.
