I'd like to see these numbers by age group. I can't count the number of times I've heard people 50 and over crack a N-bomb line around me. I used to work with this otherwise sweet 63 yr old secretary who one day called licorice babies "ni**er toes". It's just the way they were brought up. Not that it's right, and you hope they would have changed by now. Some just dont.

It would also be interesting to see these by urban / rural lines. Oyen, Alberta would be certain to have a different reaction as to say, the Kensington district of Calgary.
