  16. Actually,  she  didn't  ...  she promoted   *labels*  on the albums to
  17. indicate offensive/adult language.  IMHO  that would only help to spur
  18. sales of albums so marked.  Stupid idea, and I never thought I'd stick
  19. up for   Tipper on  this, but  she  was   *not* promoting  censorship.
  20. Actually, just before the election, Frank Zappa indicated he'd do just
  21. about anything to get  Clinton/Gore  elected, he'd  even make  up with
  22. Tipper!
