I was trying to open a group at Google Groups for my "mathematic analysis" class (I don't know if it's well translated.. in spanish "análisis matemático")
It was a big surprise when I discovered the group names Analisis and AnalisisMatematico weren't taken. So I, so happy, started filling out the form to register the group. But when I submited the form, it came back with an error:
>>This email address is not suitable. You cannot include the text "anal" in the email address.
It's ok if I try to make a group about anal things, but I was trying to talk about ANALYSIS.
I'm disappointed with this silly thing!

Sounds like the SafeSearch options are set a little too strict.

Ages ago I tried entering "Simpsons Hit and Run" as a game I had played (Think it could have been MSN) and was surprised it got rejected because of their filter!

At least it wasn't the clbuttic error :-P
