My sincere apoligy if I offended anyone. I had no idea at all this was an ethnic slur. I understand your concern and will adhere to your wishes.
Again, I apologize and did not wish to hurt anyone's feelings. I know the feeling, being Italian when I was in the Army, no one could pronounce my last name, so they would just call me alphabet. I did not like it then and I do not like it now.
