Sorry I can't keep up with the 'PC' terms..

When did 'global warming' turn into 'climate change'?? This 'PC' stuff is nuts..
The other one that gets me is the current term for our black skinned breathren. They used to be negros, then African-Americans - not sure what the 'proper' term is now. Nothing derogatory - I nominated 'one of them' to be senior warden of our Episcopal church - and he was elected by the entire congregation!
We had a 'black' gentleman at our boatyard a while back. Drove in one morning and he's working on his teak toe rails. I wish him a 'Good Morning' and he replies that 'he's got to get a boat nigger to do this work' - his words, not mine. Tough to keep up with things..
