It's also mine. I have no problem with characters not swearing in the show due to censorship issues on the networks where it was shown. Equally, I have no problem with writers having the characters swear because in the 'real' world it is likely that in certain circumstances they would swear. However, I don't expect every other word out of a character's mouth to be a curse because I feel that would be out of character for the SG1 folk. It's about getting a balance that feels appropriate for the characters being written - same with any language/phrasing being used. I read something recently in which Jack was using terms like 'piffle' and 'poppycock', to me that's not Jack!
