Ya, I know you aren't supposed to do that. I am just wondering why it is in the autocensor list. It isn't a "bad" word, is it? I will probably never use it again, as I have no need too, but I just noticed someone mention it in the Monitor forum. Just wondering.

HA!  Hahehahehah... OK, I see what's happening. No, f.l.y.b.a.c.k. is not supposed to be censored. It's another word starting with "F" and ending with "CK".... fixed!

Thank goodness. I was really confused. I thought the fine art of foul language had evolved beyond my comprehension.
