Subject: Johnny Depp & the Obscenity Filter
   I was chatting with a friend and noticed that the word "Depp" as in Johnny Depp was filtered out by the obscenity filter. I can't find any reference in Websters or Wikipedia to any obscenity under the word "Depp". Is this a commentary on his acting or his salary? If so shouldn't "Bloom" be an obscenity or even worse shouldn't doing a "Pitt" be blocked as obscene? Confused

Q u o t e:
I petition to add 'Norris' to the filter. 'Nuff said.

I fully agree, Barolas.

As far as Depp goes, I'd say he's cool enough that the developers of the filter felt it reasonable that all players recognize him simply as Johnny.
