 |  Hi thanks for getting back to me so quickly. The particular quote that I
 |  found offensive had something to do with women being dumb or stupid and was
 |  very obviously discriminatory to women. Also, the fact that Adolph Hitler
 |  was chosen as the man to quote... There are so many great people to quote in
 |  the world. Adolph Hitler happens to have killed close to 18 million people
 |  all within the last century. I think many of the worlds workers would find
 |  it very unpleasant to log onto their workstation and have good morning come
 |  from Hitler. Especially people that have suffered the loss of a family
 |  member in the holocaust, this is extremely upsetting. I hope this helps
 |  clarify the situation.

 Well, we have to draw the line somewhere on what is offensive or not.
 I am all for free speech and I don't believe in banning books to avoid
 poisoning people's minds. I have moved the two offensive fortunes to
 fortunes2-o, but I have left the non-offensive ones alone. Remember there
 are quotes from Stalin too in the fortunes database, where do we stop?
