    One additional comment.....

    Are we going to go edit out all Satchmo's recordings that have the same lyrics in them?

    Unfrortunately I'm too late on this one. The lyrics to Satchmo's recordings in all the online lyrics sites have already been "Cleansed". There goes an Era of music (New Orleans Jazz/big band) into the politically correct dustbin.

    Yep Winston Smith just changed the past and everyone was OK with it..

    Maybe we're TOO afraid of giving offense. If one removes all traces of a word from the oral history, the oral history itself ceases to exist. An extreme example of this is President Ahmaninijed (sp?)of Iran disavowing the Holocaust.
