    I was wondering if anyone has run across this problem... I wrote a poem in the funny for kids section and when I tried to submit it, a warning came up that it may have innappropriate words. The only words that I could think of was that there were a lot of words with aprostrophes. So, I took away the words like They'll and replaced it with They will. Tried to submit again, and still the same message came up. So I decided to submit it under another catagory, still the same warning came up. I have changed the name and everything but can't get it to take. Can someone help me.

    Never mind. I found out it was the word Dickens.

    I had to use Emerson instead. Can you believe it.

    When the poem was finally posted and i reread it I realized most kids wouldn't know who Emerson was so changed it to Dr. Suess. Just couldn't understand how they thought the name Dickens could have been suggestive. I ended up having to post in in explicit poetry. Then when I tried to edit the post and put into a regular catagory It wouldn't let me. I have seen some pretty weird stuff being posted under regular catagories, and If you could read the poem [My Grand Adventure] you'd see the hilarity of the whole situation. I must have reread that poem a dozen times before I realized it was the word Dickens that was causing the mess. It was the only thing, I hadn't changed, the only thing left to change. Funny, this site is.

    Well I think they've been adding new words to their inappropiat (sp) words.
