I'm interested in learning more about your views on
commercial pornography and the limits to free speech.

In the April issue of Scientific American, they had an
interesting item in their "150 years ago" section. They
quoted an article about a hazard that was causing many
people to become "morally insane." It wasn't pornography,
as you might expect; it seems they were reading too much
fiction.

150 years ago, would you have argued that free speech
rights shouldn't include commercial fiction?
