Censorship gone too far

This is fairly ridiculous.

I just ordered a Christmas present from lego.com for Dick's nephew. I also had a gift-note sent with it.

I tried to have the card read: "Happy Holidays to Peter! Love, Uncle Dick & Trina"

It sent an error message back to me, saying something the lines of, "Because this is a children's site, we cannot allow the use of the word "dick" in your message."

Oh, for crying out loud! That's his name!

We actually ordered from lego a couple of years ago, and I remember coming across the same problem.

Like there aren't any other men named Dick out there! The Vice-President of The United States, for example!

Bah-humbug!
