Amen.

(Disclaimer: No particular religious were solicited or referenced in this
affirmation, just a particular observance of the oxymoronic nature of
current "family values". I'd much rather see my child stare @ a naked
breast 24/7 then hear about Columbine, over and over again. Seems that we
focus on all the wrong things for all the "right reasons". Feh!)

Yes I have a Machintosh, please don't scream at me.
