Peter says [quote]Personally I find the use of the term "Abort" 
inappropriate at the least, if not to say offensive.[/quote]

I disagree with that, and certainly don't see where any offence is 
caused. The word "abort' is used in many contexts, not  uniquely to 
abortions. Missions are aborted, and take-offs are aborted.

Having said that, there is nothing wrong with using the word "Cancel".
