There's Just No Escaping The "C" Word

"Many different traditions, myths and cults fed the Greek games."

-- Edward Rothstein, on the history of the Olympic torch relay, in the New York Times

  1. I notice that the "C" word really puts people off. It is like the ultimate insult for people, so they dismiss it as ignorant and mean-spirited a lot of the time, no matter how accurate it may be. Maybe some euphemisms would be in order, like , "peak indoctrination index", or something like that.

    Wow. Now that I wrote that, it sounds so stupid and harmless.
    Stick with the 'C' word.

    That's the best laugh I've had all day!

    Thanks.
