What's the name of the two guys in the SF2 intro? The white guy who punches the black guy out and then it scrolls up to the "Street Fighter II" logo. Also, I heard that the black guy got replaced in the home version. Is this true?

Well, I ran this scenario through my "RacismBot" program that was installed on my computer when I bought it from the campus store at UMass. It detects any racist activity, then takes over my harddrive in protest until I create more directories named after minorities. Here was it's analysis:
White man knocks out black man. RACIST. Brutal treatment of blacks.
White man knocks out white man. RACIST. Excludes blacks.
Black man knocks out white man. RACIST. This is propaganda portraying black men as a threat to white society.
Black man knocks out black man. RACIST. This portrays black men as violent and undisciplined.
Solution: Organize a group of men and women representing all ethnicities, put them in multi-colored ninja outfits, and have them only knock out really yucky bug creatures from outer space.
Now you know. And knowing is half the battle. The other half involves lots of tanks and firearms.
