Re: At Competition

Hm. My opinion on this issue is short and somewhat bitter: I have my First Amendment. If someone has an issue with how I talk, and how I express myself, it is up to them to confront me about it. I won't bow to ANY rule prohibiting speech of ANY kind.

As for the whole swearing being not that great for many reasons, this is a proper place to tout the GP flag: Act as though your grandmother were watching, and all will be well. If a situation is hectic/stressful enough to warrant swearing in front of a grandmother, then by all means, fire at will. But otherwise, express yourself in a professional manner, based on surroundings and conversation. We're a group of engineers (or wanna be engineers...), we should be able to self regulate this issue on our own. Oh wait, we already do.
