Swearing at Work May Actually Be a Good Thing -- No $%#@!?

Want to know how much the times they are a-changin'? Consider this: back in 1939, in the movie 'Gone With the Wind,' Rhett Butler (Clark Gable) turned to Scarlett O'Hara (Vivien Leigh) and said those infamous words, "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn." The single utterance of one word -- "damn," considered "profane" by the Hollywood Production Code Commission -- cost producer David Selznick $5,000, a tidy sum in those days.
