I will be at the IMC this afternoon and should be able to do this.

I would guess that ass, bitch and damn or OK. Ass is a type of donkey (I
think), a bitch is a female dog and damn is what happens to you if you don't
read the Bible (some believe).

Oh no...does this scream for another policy...


This is what I would recommend for the automation music:


   1. Music that has been verified as "clean" will be played any time
   during the day or night.
   2. Music that has not been checked as "clean" can be played only from
   10 pm to 6 am (so we are safe in case it is "naughty"),
   3. Music that is known to be "naughty" is not put on the automation
   system. Music on the system found to be "naughty" is taken off. This way we
   have some protection if the computer screws up and plays the late night
   playlist during the day.

So basically this mean clean music can be heard any time. Unchecked music
can be heard only during safe harbor.  Known naughty music is never heard.

This would mean we could add lot of new unchecked music to the system and
only pull them off when someone reports a naughty tune.

What do people think?
