“From my weekly alumni e-mail: Here is another email censorship story. There was a very strong external applicant for a job with our company. He was asked to send his resume to several of our folks. We waited, but it didn't show up. Over the phone he said he sent it and re-sent it, but still nothing was received on our end. The problem was that his credentials were just too good. He graduated "with highest honors" and it turned out the Latin word for "with" is on the no-no list for our email filter. The moral for new graduates: you'll have a better chance of getting a foot in the door with mediocre school performance.” 1:10:33 PM 5/19/03 “cum on! Too funny!” 1:13:11 PM 5/19/03 “lol, I had the same problem once trying to get a wildlife feature about blue tits through the blocker.” 1:16:57 PM 5/19/03 “That's pretty funny but yikes! Blocking an entire email over one word sounds problematic - other programs just block the offending word, like they do on websites. Next time I send a vitae, I'll use the English instead of the Latin.” 1:36:03 PM 5/19/03 “I had a problem a few weeks ago when HPM tried to send me restrictions and info on setting up a web site for my cub scouts. The word 'porn' was in the text, referring to a prior incident or something like that and the whole e mail was held up in San Diego (our home office).” 1:39:34 PM 5/19/03 “How funny: summa cum laude = with highest praise magna cum laude = with great praise cum laude = with praise” 1:46:14 PM 5/19/03 “Filters are garbage.” 1:46:47 PM 5/19/03 ban the censors “and bring in the Centaurs” 1:51:04 PM 5/19/03 “Who Are The Brain Police?” 2:10:02 PM 5/19/03 “SpongeBob and Patrick” 2:13:42 PM 5/19/03 “What about Squidward?” 2:22:01 PM 5/19/03 “and the sad part is it's a real easy fix.” 2:28:03 PM 5/19/03 “If you want to get laid, go to college, but if you want an education, go to the library.

Couldn't deceide which one to post.” 9:45:38 PM 3/11/05
