The term "brainstorming" has become the latest target of political correctness, according to a charity. Trainee teachers are being told to avoid the word for fear of offending pupils with epilepsy. I wonder what spaz came up with this?

Oh good grief. Soon we'll all have to be carrying around at least a three volume set of books to tell us what we are no longer allowed to say. It will take 3 hours to have a 5 minute conversation.
I can see it now. "Then he, er, uh, I mean, the individual conducted a brainstorming session, er, I mean a, oh damn, let me look that one up."
