We have had a complaint about parts of TFM from a new member of ProgSoc.
I don't think that's very nice, considering how much we give our members.
So far, she has complained to:

"Dean, Student Association, Ombudsman, University Ombudsman, Equal Opportunity
MPs. (I think the VC) These are the ones I know of. They are all ringing me
at the moment." - Jenny

Rather, they are all ringing Jenny Edwards. I intend to send this on to
those bodies, but don't have all their email addresses -- can anyone help?

This is one part complained about:

>Here is an example .sig

>Gimmie some sugar, baby!
>
>(See? That quote isn't funny if you don't know which film it's from ---
>and dubiously so if you do.)

And the other:

>\item French Broadway Cafe. The location of choice when editing TFM,
> marking assignments, going a bit wet about French girls\ldots There's
> also the French Markets Cafe in Building 5. Nathalie and Alain are
> really nice people, as are all their staff.

Now, the first is just plainly inoffensive - only a moron could take
offence; and the second is a personal ancedote and I, and the girl,
aren't offended.

comments? Jenny thinks we should edit TFm to avoid erm... hassle.
