It doesn't cost me (or, I suspect, most people) a dime.

What gives you the right to "waste my money" by voicing such opinions? The same right others have
to post what they see fit. Personally, I was interested (and surprised) to find any libraries that
carried Playboy. Could I suggest that what you care or don't care about isn't necessarily
universal?

But I'm with you there, 100%! Which is why I'm surprised that you saw fit to include such a large
quote at the bottom of your own message.
