I believe the joke in question did have SCA mentioned
in which case I would consider it relevant.  If we
start restricting what is allowable SCA related
material and what is not allowable SCA related
material we start worrying too much.

I think it's time we were all a little less serious. 
If you don't like it, delete it.
