Speaking of this, did I hear the "f" word (which isn't in the above list, so I guess it isn't considered offensive for Stanford websites) in one of the audio clips played by the DJ at the Stanford-Tennessee WBB game?
I can't swear that what I heard was that word, what with the acoustics of a stadium, but I thought I did. It made me wonder who hires the DJ and what restrictions are put on what is played.
The concern above over the individual terms completely ignores how the terms are used:
<adj><noun><adv><verb><adj><noun>.
It makes a lot of difference what the verb and modifiers are.
I will report that the audio levels in the area where I sit (upper sides) have pretty much only touched 90dB (frequently) and not beyond. Early in the year, during WVB, it seemed higher but I wasn't measuring it. Oh good, that reminds me to bring noise-cancelling earpieces tonight to tone down the P.A. system. I guess we won't have the band again.
