Subject: Re: [WISPA] New revenue stream *THREAD CLOSED!*Rick,I can certainly understand that many among us are offended by the very mention of nudity on the internet, however, I do not understand why the topic in question cannot be discussed on the WISPA list. I understood the WISPA lists to be a forum of discussion to determine how 'members' felt about the activities of the FCC, and how we could have our interests represented, for example.
Rick why is it 'not proper' for us to discuss the propriety of allowing nude web sites, or not allowing, based upon the free and open discussion of the precise impropriety of the question Mr. Huppenthal asked? I am a paid member, I do not allow, if I know, sexually explicit material on my system. Notwithstanding, I believe that an open discussion of the very issue Mr. Huppenthal raised might clear the air and set some valuable guidelines for us all.
