I never understood the weird pix they had on the cover but, well, they're probably "Wired" :-)

As previously stated on the other thread you people have pulled off something every April 1, it's sad that it was misinterpreted but once I figured out exactly what it was I'll be glad to come to your defense if necessary. I'll have to admit that you may have overstepped a few bounds this time as 'net security is getting quite a bit tighter but there are just too many people that don't understand the laughter we often have to create on our own.

Look at some of the talk in those Yahoo! threads and consider the fact that 6 year old children can go right into them, read them, (and often I think they're the ones posting) - kind of spooky, isn't it?

I know it's virtually impossible to regulate this rapidly emerging medium so it's up to us to try to help regulate it ourselves
