Gatorpilot had a link to a Reuters news story that has to be the most ridiculous, petty and tenuous example of political correctness gone totally loopy.
Los Angeles officials have asked that manufacturers, suppliers and contractors stop using the terms "master" and "slave" on computer equipment, saying such terms are unacceptable and offencive.
The terms master and slave are not in the least bit offencive, they merely refer to the hierarchical relationship between two pieces of equipment.
The world's gone mad I tell you.
