Subject: Re: Delete abortion joke
Date: Sun, 29 Apr 2018 17:11:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <697eef75-9550-d7e1-bc08-aeffc7a593e5@cs.ucla.edu> (raw)

I agree with removing this joke. A bit of humor is fine - indeed, the manual 
could use a bit more than it has - but this attempt at humor does not work. The 
manual should be high-quality, and that includes high-quality jokes.
