I have read many books that have no swearing at all, and I am not just talking about DR. Suess! They usually say something like, "He muttered and oath", or "she said things that would make a sailor blush." You know, implied. I think that swearing comes from habit but when you write it out, whether in a forum or a paper or a story, it is for the shock value. Use of those words really limit ones vocabulary. Look at "Die Hard" or othrs like it where the majority of the dialog is bleeped or voiced over when shown edited. In short, I think that the censor should stay and be edited to include previously mentioned words.

Well, all those taxes may add up to more that what I keep in the jar on my dresser. How about I throw in some lovely wetlands (the ditch) just out the back here. There are a finite amount of things you could do with it like charge the neighbors to use it when it rains and thier lawns drain or old appliance storage, not so many things you could do.
