Relationship Challenged

| 1 Comment

User Friendly did a cartoon on the outlawing of Master/Slave in LA County. I showed this to one of my cow-orkers that suggested that Illiad should have also changed single to "Relationship Challenged."

I took some time to do a little searching... According to Meriam-Webster's onlilne dictionary, there is no specific mention of black or African-American people in pre Civl Wwar America when looking up master or slave.

As a car entusiast (as well as a computer nut), I feel discriminated against. I am going to sue LA for not forcing a change across the board. For example, in hydraulic brakes on a car there is a master cylinder and a slave cylinder. I can think of many other examples that follow this same principle. Why discriminate against computers?
