As a short-timer ( I will retire soon w/58 yrs in IT and 53 yrs on 360) I have 
been quiet on the lists.  But as a certified curmudgeon ...

Poo or poop, because both sound like doing #2

Over the yrs I have seen/heard/... so much #2 passed off as work product ... 
(e.g. the original design of floating point processing on the 360/75 - it 
should be embarrassing having to do a re-pop)

Peace be with y'all
