IAC, your use of the "Kumbaya" crack was clearly
racist if unintended, and I thought somewhat beneath you. You surely know
perfectly well that "Kumbaya" is a black South African folk song and introducing
it into the discussion didn't seem warranted to me.

"Kumbaya" is a Christian South African folk song, and is in many
Christian hymn books. Ed didn't insult me by referrring to this
Christian song. Why do you feel insulted because it is also a "black"
song?
