	Got this in an email lol There is an annual contest at Melbourne University calling for the most appropriate definition of a contemporary term. The term this years students were asked to define was "Political Correctness". The very colourful - and pertinent response - was....... "Political Correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."
