 Approximiately 90% of Pornography available in Australia (mostly in
New South Wales) isn't classified, or has seemingly been "classified"
by those other than the OFLC.

 Approximately 100% of "controversial porno products" never make it to
the censor's watchful eye.  If they did the cost and the workload of
the OFLC would rise dramatically......

 Just a thought.
