"Passport" becomes "Pbuttport."
"Clbuttic" is featured in a BBC article which also discusses the unfortunate auto-substitution that occurred when sprinter Tyson Gay was in the Olympics ("Homosexual eases into 100m final at Olympic trials") amd explains that a Canadian magazine with a proud 90 year history of being named "The Beaver" is now finding that it can't reach subscribers online because of spam filters.
Deborah Morrison, publisher of the Winnipeg-based journal, told the BBC News website: "Back in 1920, The Beaver was a perfectly appropriate name." And while its other meaning is nothing new, its ambiguity began to pose a whole new challenge with the advance of the internet. The name became an impediment to our growth."
Similar concerns in part prompted Beaver College in the US state of Pennsylvania to change its name in 2001.
Oregon bring the BEAVER STATE, we have
ReplyDeletebeaver every where, and we're not changing.
Oregon State mascot is the beaver, and
the football team is just known as The Beavers.
Of course it always brings a smile, when
a sport's page reads something like
Washington Huskies Lick the Beavers!
When I get this feeling, I want genderual healing.
