Um, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't the original message say they wanted
to use 'Cybersitter'? Cybersitter is embroiled in a law suit about why they
are blocking sites that are critical of their product.
So, pornography might not be all you don't see at BPL-- you might not see gay
& lesbian materials, the NOW site, etc.
I'm not vouching for the validity of the charges, but here's the URL where
they were announced:

My opinions are my own. No one else would HAVE them anyway.
