In my opinion it is very hard to establish criteria to accept or reject writings by fools such as Flynn. It is even harder when confronted with the works of honest expressionists. SI must remain family fare for those of us with 13 to 17 year olds with investment interest. How can Jill decide who is worthy of SI? Two criteria are simple to apply, vulgarity and obscenity, and I don't object to her 1950's definitions.

The contrary problem is the expression of free speech. After passing the vulgarity/obscenity test, where should one be censored on social issues. Well, maybe not at all. SI is truely a microcosmos. The owners have chosen to allow every type of thread, including this one. I praise them for that, for it allows me to enjoy mostly intelligent thought as opposed to chat rooms and Yahoo. This is because those drawn to SI didn't come for the social interaction, but they are revelling in it.
