Cheney, Dicked
By Timothy Noah
While the Bush campaign works overtime to associate the
Gore-Lieberman ticket with Hollywood smut peddlers, it is
overlooking its own assault on civility within the public square:
The name of its vice-presidential candidate. A Chatterbox
investigation reveals that the name "Dick Cheney" sets off the
"Moodwatch" anti-flaming filter on the Eudora e-mail system
(http://www.eudora.com/)!
According to the Eudora Web page, "MoodWatch" is a feature on
Eudora 5.0
that acts as an emotion monitor for your email that flags
aggressive language and calls it to your attention. MoodWatch can
detect aggressive, demeaning or rude language in the email you send
and receive by looking at both individual words and complete
phrases.
