Ok, Granted, the person may have just used the term to shorten the wording for the post, but all it would have taken is a Period at the end of his abbreviation and I would have taken it as that. I am half Japanese, and was called that by mean and racist people during my child-hood and seeing it here, DID offend me. I apologize if I jumped to conclusions on this, and please excuse my language earlier, but even if you live somewhere, other than the USA, you should know better. Genny
