Hey Hugh,
Just a quick note while wearing a moderator hat on this mailing list.
You may not be aware of it, but 'Rice it' is a pejorative term, please avoid using it here.
"In some cases users of the term assert that it is not offensive or racist,[12] or else treat the term as a humorous, mild insult rather than a racial slur." And in the articles referred to, it is certainly NOT being used as a racial slur.
Thank you,
Alex.
