Either @#$%in' or screwin' up.
I am defiantly against making our comment vents look like a Beatle Baily comic strip baloon text.
The UFS message is clearly to go, but removing the comments would be insane.
(oh and as for corporate source tree's worrying about this, they indeed do for the people who buy source licenses from them, there are groups of people who scan the tree snapshots they release and grep out profanity etc., one cool one that got through was that the architecture in question had a common set of 3 instruction sequences that were easier to code if macro'ized, they alway came in the sequence A; A; A; B; B; B;, they did #define BLOW A; A; A; and #define JOB B; B; B;, they put the defines in two different header files, and the committee overlooked the particular assembler files these were used in, the joke got past the committee as intended ;-)
