Not that this thread hasn't run it's course, but I do like one suggestion that was made, and I sincerely hope that Peter takes it into serious consideration. The suggestion was to "safe filter" by default, much the way Google does for image searches. Considering how "public" (both figuratively and financially) Google is, I feel they devised a very good solution; the filter is easy enough to disable should you desire to.
My 2¢.

of course some kids may be a little too curious too soon...
but we should discuss the issue broadly and generalize, knowing that their are always exceptions.
no solution will ever be perfect.

I remember when I was a kid I didn't want to read books for children
but those adults thought were important. I think I kids section will
interest parents mostly.
