I thinbk the internet issue is really a computers and communication
issie.  The factions proposing an internet ban do not really
distinguish between internet and BBS systems.  Its all the same to
them.  Its computers and telephones.

Given the material available on CD-ROM, the computer does not even
need a communication line to get smut, so we should expect a computer
ban altogether.

I wonder how they will get their cars to run...
