Default Silly Question about Jigs - --

In article BtNCb.533006$HS4.4072535@attbi_s01,
says...
I've lived in the heart of Red-neckville for twenty years and never heard
the term.


I remember it being used racially when I was growing up in Kentucky. It
had been some 50 years since I'd heard it used that way until last year
when someone even older than I used it that way.

I agree that most folks have never heard the racial slur, so it's an
ovrreaction to object to "jig" used in either of it's normal definitions.
