Siri's Capabilities Reduced in iOS 5.1?

I haven't looked into it (maybe I should before popping off here? bah!) but it seems Siri can't do as much as she used to could*...

When she first came out, I could speak to her in entire paragraphs, dictate essentially a full email -- and she would dutifully plop it all onto the screen. Not any more. Now she seems to limit my input to a few seconds. I suppose the servers have an easier time of it with smaller chunks...

She also does not seem to like it when I cuss, coming back with 'no need for profanity Sam...' It's NYC, Siri, they're just adjectives!

* Yes I know 'used to could' is terrible English, just doing my part to keep it alive!
