As possibly the smuttiest poster on a.r.s., I have a message for Senator Exon: the panties are in the post. Being British I do not have to abide by his bizarre view of morality. Moreover, I believe that even should the bill clear the House and the Whitehouse, the courts will make mincemeat of any prosecution which seeks to limit the exercise of free speech simply because it contains obscenities. The bill is likely to be limited to use against such as that poster to alt.sex earlier this year who broadcast a woman's name and address and made allegations about her personal life. Funny, that sounds quite similar to what Vera did to Tarla. -- Tony Sidaway SUPPORT DENNIS ERLICH, CRITIC SUED BY SCIENTOLOGISTS NEW ADDRESS
