Agree Sara. (Gosh I am agreeing with you much too often these days. What happened? ) In this case, though, I believe that the employer may just be caving into pressure to appear politically correct and to do *the right thing.* Too much of a firestorm has erupted around this hot potato. It is amazing what some can get away with while others cannot. I guess it all depends on just who one is offending.
