Please note that the "parent" of the "3 year old twins" returning from "Bible day camp" has asked the FCC to "set a stern example". I think I know what radio show this writer listens to in the mornings, don't you?

Yes, that did elicit a chuckle. (I'm not surprised Flutterbarian regulars caught it, but I wouldn't expect the general public to.)

As I noted a second ago in my weblog, it was absolutely clear which half of those letters were written because Stern put them up to it, and which half were written by slathering zealots who believe that any talk of sex is the devil's work. The ones in the former half, among other things, were mostly coherent.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
