- well, i think since this is an unmoderated newsgroup, we can hardly
- *stop* people from talking about sex. the one topic got carried too
- far, certainly, and it does get a bit overbearing, true. but it can
- be done in a pythonesque way, i think.
- if we drop the "sex sells" etc subject we will all be the better
- for it...(if we remember that it will drag on for days anyway since
- it takes things a few days to get everywhere).
- but certainly insinuation is no harm, and can be done tastefully (yes, it
- can!) if not taken tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo far.
- how far is that? we'll just have to see.

- right. as i said, there's not much harm; we have never gotten graphic
- with it, and hopefully we havn't offended too many (well, no one's
- complained to me..)
