Please tell us why you locked Questor's topic about porno.  Do you not think that members here can make intelligent comments about this subject?  Perhaps it should've been moved to a more appropriate place but to just lock it up and not allow the rest of us to comment is not justified in my book.

Personally I don't think it was appropriate for the site.  Good job Mikey.

I locked the topic not Mikey. I also left it rather than canning it. The poster is a friend of mine and at times can make some real esoteric posts. This being one of them. I saw no real rule violations in the post but it was one that was bound to elicit responses which would. So I locked it and left it for now at least.

OK, so I'm venting a little.

The whole thing was inspired by an acutal hunting-related search I made that seemed innocent enough but got a lot of x-rated hits in google. It seems like everything gets x-rated hits these days. I opened a comcast account and e-mail came with it. I never used the e-mail for several  months and when I opened it for the first time, without ever having logged onto it before, the mailbox had about 200 x-rated and other junk e-mails. Now, with no activity other than business correspondence and very limited personal correspondence I still get a couple of trash e-mails daily.

This internet is a great medium, but sometimes it seems almost as bad as network TV.
Safety first

Boss - thank you.  Questor I once searched for transmissions, for an old Ford truck and what came back was 70% porn.  It was bad.  I'm still deleting that stuff whenever it comes through.  I guess you just have to be careful of what you search for.  Mikey.
