What's next; banning certain letters from the alphabet, because they can be used for banned texts?

    I had to look this up, but it is a fact that certain letters were banned. I should not be so amazed. Back in the 1960's the Greek junta banned the letter Z, because it meant 'he is alive.'

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z_(1969_film) the movie is a fictional, but based on the actual events.

    No E because of Estrogen

    No T because of Testosterone

    No X or Y because of chromosomes
