Title: We are not bad people.
Scene: Office.
1. You security guys need to go a little easier on the filtering thing.
2. Protecting our people from offensive material is a job we take very seriously.
1. I know. I typed abreast in an email and got three calls from HR.
2. Maybe you should leave that stuff for when you’re not at work.
Caption: The line between managing risk and irrational restraint is a thin one.

Still nothing at http://onefte.com/2011/10/01/we-are-not-bad-people-2/ .
I never really understood the knee-jerk, emphasis on the jerk part, reaction to inappropriate content. Then I saw this:

Standard warning: Penny-Arcade, while highly accurate and extremely humorous, is rarely work safe. This is not an exception to that rule.

If you are introducing a Bill discussing internet censorship it’s a good idea to disable your own email filtering software while discussing it!

My wife is organizing a fundraiser to support healthcare for women’s cancer issues. She couldn’t figure out why some folks weren’t responding to her e-mails…. (Hint: breast cancer'' includes the wordbreast”. Can’t have that! :-/)

Terry – years and years ago, either Prodigy or AOL had a similar problem. I seem to remember a hubbub due to the “hooter cancer” discussion group.

Apparently Bruce’s link has slashdotted their server. ;-p
The connection has timed out
The server at onefte.com is taking too long to respond.
