More on the scrotum scandal
(Hmmm. I wonder just how many Google keyword searches are going to lead to this post.)
Neil Gaiman agrees with me about the banning of the latest Newbery Medal winner. I especially like the link he provided to a list of youth literature--most of it "classic" stuff that few librarians would dislike--that contains the offending word.
People do indeed suck. Fortunately, there are people like Neil Gaiman to offset them a bit.

The examples made me wince, but I don't see why anyone should have a problem with scrotums (scrota)in literature as long as no scrotums (scrota) were actually harmed in the making of these books.
