> I presume you are referring to the image shown for a long time on the goatse website.

Yes of course! Talking about the goatse phenomenon means primarily the image.

> It was the word being used as a name.

Exactly, and as I said, objecting the _word_ is a case Spanish inquisition. Me too, I didn't know the image before.

> If you were freelancing, you weren't an employee.

I think these laws/etiquette apply generally to subordinates.

The difference is that an average freelancer wouldn't openly oppose his client.

(well I'm not normal... )

> ... object to their branches in Essex?

hihi 8) This reminds me of a friend who was complaining he couldn't get emails from his girlfriend from her university of sussex account (mid 90s) ... as we found out mails containing "sex" where automatically filtered out by our faculties sys-admin. xD

UPDATE: In general people should be very prudent about a quick accusations, just take the cultural differences of the meaning of 88 in chats.

Cheers Rolf
