No Flesh in the library -- a filtering problem

This is hardly unexpected given the way filters work: Flesh Public 
Library, in Piqua, Ohio,  had it's own website blocked by NetNanny 
because "flesh" appeared in its domain name. The sad part is that 
instead of having NetNanny enable their entirely harmless domain name 
they changed it.

(it was also noted on Slashdot over the weekend).
