Does anyone consider that we are all, at some level and to some degree, attracted by the prurient? That all of us, some secretly, some openly feel the titillation (word of the day) of peeking at what society in general claims is "naughty." We seem to be heading towards a more global society open to the net and to novel ways of interacting; and what a sick, twisted society it could become .... permissiveness battling puritanism, with most of the puritans paying mere lip-service to their beliefs ... fun stuff! (The new puritans are a lot like the old ones who objected to bear-baiting, not because of the pain it gave to the bear, but because of the pleasure it gave to the spectators). The world has changed .... the old rule book has become ineffectual, perhaps irrelevant ... we need new guidelines to address the new realities. Or maybe a little Anarchy (not chaos) would be in order ... (an accidental pun).

Now, more importantly, I wonder if I can get a subscription to Beano, and have it mailed to the colonies
Well I think the Dandy is still going, but its not on my weekly intake of literature these days Eric However, I seem to think that DD has changed recently can recall something about it being aired, but can't remember what. Think he must have gone PC and now takes the horns of the cow and wipes its backside before he eats it these days
