"The Supreme Court is not likely to support a ban on computer generated porn, adult or otherwise..." - Wanna bet? "...maladjusted individuals helped to find healthier, more sociable means of gratification." - Will they be given the option to remain 'maladjusted,' or will this be mandatory? "If it's the one I'm thinking of, it was classically beautiful." - This issue is so controversial and emotionally charged (and an easy vote getter for demagogues-read politicians), that very few people are going to be willing to take the heat. As soon as you say 'child' and 'nude' in the same sentence, it's CYA time. If the image is as described, then it should be protected but I certainly couldn't blame someone for pulling it. Given some of the truly grotesque legal consequences people have suffered for things which were clearly not pornographic, that's understandable. You can whistle up a crowd to protest just about anything but not many folks are going to publicly support the right of someone to create even classically beautiful images of nude children, real or virtual. As a result, even a small, but vocal minority can succeed in imposing their view of morality on antire society.

"Democracy is a pathetic belief in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance." - H. L. Mencken
