- The law says you become an adult at 18. Opinion won't protect the
- sysop in court. At 18 you can vote, sign binding contracts, and d/l XXX
- gifs (or pose for them, for that matter). Until that age parents should
- be the ones deciding what the children should see.
-
- I know you think you're an adult now, but 18 will come, and you'll
- look back and wonder at the dumb things you did at 16 (and at 30, for
- that matter). Don't get mad at people who won't risk jail for you.

- It never ceases to amaze me that otherwise rational people, able to
- understand calculus, compound interest, and the income tax form, can
- continue to believe that poker is a game of chance.
