Why do people write pl*co and not pleco?

They say if you write pleco, the specific fish you are referring to will die.
 
Its like saying macbeth in europe. You are not allowed to say macbeth during any part of the play, during production or during the actual play, because it will bring about bad luck. ;)

I dont actually know either, anyone care to explain?
 
Also, don't expect someone to wish you "good luck" b4 entering a play. Best wished are told by telling you "break a leg".
 
PLECO....PLECO.....PLECO !!

I'm curious as to how it all got started, also.
