The sentence "the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" uses every letter in the English language.This is incorrect, you misquoted it.Where's the "a"?The quick brown fox jumps over a lazy dog.

"Donald Duck comics were banned in Finland because he doesn't wear pants." is incorrect. Ask any Finnish kid of the fifties and he'll tell you he saw and/or collected Donald comics as a kid.
