  17. I should mention two things related to the book from Juneau, Alaska. 
  18. The first is that someone recently had anonymously donated a copy of
  19. "Sex" to the Alaska State Library.  Their official response was
  20. something along the lines of "This is not the sort of thing we
  21. collect - we'll decide at a later date how to dispense of it."  (Yeah,
  22. right - someone who works at the library probably took it home so he
  23. could have something new with which to jack off at night)  The other
  24. item of note is that both of the primary booksellers in town (Juneau's
  25. population is about 27,000) had initially refused to carry the book. 
  26. I seem to recall that they returned the initial shipments that were
  27. sent to them.  I don't know if they have reversed their stances since
  28. then.
