However, given the topic of this discussion (children and the ARS one

closer to extinction), how is one supposed to know the difference between
the in your face "TIT" and the "TIT" initials? In the end, without a
specific context, it's just a callsign. And how would a callsign bring the
ARS one step closer to extinction?

Thank you. And, as someone else pointed out, if a kid derives the word
"tit" from my callsign, it AIN'T because I taught 'em. *Anyone* who thinks
kids are still that innocent these days, has not been on a schoolyard or
listening in on kids' conversations when they think no one is around--and
I've even heard Kindergartners speaking of some pretty risque topics. Sad
but true.
