interesting.

The PA House has passed a Resolution discouraging the use of the "N" word. You can click the link to read.

"RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives discourage the use of the "N" word and join in declaring a symbolic moratorium on the use of the "N" word and all its variants in this Commonwealth."

the state of PA appears to be the first state to take such action. new york city seems to be the only other place in the US that passed a moratorium on the word. (if you know of other places. please let me know) i'm finding this really interesting. i did not know that you could do this sort of thing in the House. i've been reading a lot of Bills at work today, and there's some interesting stuff that has been passed. wow. i'm a nerd.
