They can't take it to court and expect to win, no. However, it is not
unlikely that we might get accused of it in less formal circumstances
(eg Usenet posts) and I'd rather not have that sort of negative
publicity.

Hrm, that sucks. We've been employing disabled people *because* they
have the appropriate skills and experience. It's amusing to mention to
certain clients, vendors, etc, that "over 25 percent of our staff have
disabilities that prevent them from using the latest Netscape/MS
browsers on normal font size settings".

An array would be @DEITIES. I guess I should say:
$DEITIES[rand(@DEITIES)]
