- I am reminded of a play I directed at a small theater a few years back.
- It was written by Tennessee Williams. Some upstanding citizen wrote to
- the board of directors after seeing it, wanting my hide on his wall for
- bringing such filth into the community. They wrote back:
-
- "If you don't know enough to stay away from a Williams play if you're
- likely to be offended by one, then please stay away from our theater
- in general."
-
- A similar statement might be made to people who read newsgroups with
- the word "marketplace" in their titles.

- Love and Ki$$es,

- P.S. It was a damn good play.
