All this discussion of censorship and pornography and teenagers
reminds me of a story my mother used to tell me (she was also a
librarian).
One of her first jobs was at a public library, and she often had to
eject teenagers who were getting rowdy because they were reading the
dictionary. Yes, the dictionary. They were looking up all the
naughty words they could think of and getting all giggly about it.
So...are we going to get rid of dictionaries now? :-)
