       I have just read Paul Pichyn's article about a couple of
sleazes that sold Time magazine on the idea that the internet is
loaded with porn.

        I have been on the internet for several years now and
have talked to plenty of people and as yet have never ran into
any of this porn crap. It must take a particularly dirty mind to
be able to ferret out this stuff-- after all, there are more than
5000 newsgroups extant.

       I suspect that Elmer-De Witt and Martin Rimm spend a
lot of time lurking around libraries in their overcoats too,
looking for dirty books. 

       Why don't they "expose" those libraries too?  Probably
because they do not feel so threatened by them as they do by
people who write to freely inform and express rather than for money.
