How about this...

Please tell me if you think it's ok to use the phrase
"jewing down."

We might as well see just what is and isn't acceptable to
some people
here.

Not acceptable...

Scotty--do you use the term "Jewish overdrive" for neutral? I
always heard
that was an old trucker's term.

I knew it as 'Georgia overdrive', but , I did hear it that way
too.

When I was a kid, my Mom lectured me one time after I used the
phrase, ''that's a gyp. She explained that a good friend of ours
was Jewish and she felt that was derogatory to Jews.
I think some people are just too sensitive.
