Oz, please get the facts correct - all of them. It was not a Japanses member, it was a smart ... from Seattle who used '**** ' and that caused some concern among many members who saw it's use (which is common among smart asses) as a way to say the four-letter word. BTW, when we made the decision ask the member to choose another user name - it was because even the DMV (Department of Motor Vehicle) would not approve a license plate with *** -U on the plate. As as we know, they are ever viligant to spot these type of things. But for the record, we also asked other members to not use docsucks, ozsucks, etc. as either their user name or their emailto address. This is spiteful and we'll not have that if we can spot it.

As for the airport.....Fukuoka seems just fine.

And then there is the story (not true) of the French Connection employee from London who wanted to use the user name ...., which is as you might know, the identity campaign they use which did cause some raised eyebrows.
