Thanks, Larry, for taking the difficult, but high, road. I and many others really appreciate it. Jim.
Agreed 100%

I have even recommended this site to a few very serious church goers because I knew they would not have to read all the cus words other sites allow.

My 9 year old daughter often sits with me and reads and loves to look at the pics of trucks and I don't ever worry about what she might see before I do

A man has to decide whether he is willing to sell his integrity for a few advertising dollars, I found that decision an easy one to turn down
thankyou You decided to store your riches in heaven!!!!

Hey I know, ask the government to regulate it!! That's worked really well up to this point in time!

We need to be our own regulators, what offends me might not offend you or vise versa. People need to get some tough skin and do what is right for them.
That's exactly what they are doing. The people who don't like it aren't buying or canceling their subscription. The people who like it or don't mind it will continue as usual.

Bikinis are one thing, we see those at the beach. **** soloicitation is another. Agreed, I could tear out pages but that's a pain. Plus, when dad is deployed, who screens my automotive mags for content? I can't believe it would even be an issue. And tell me this, what tech article have you read in any diesel mag that you hadn't already discussed on this site? Most of their articles are old news or sponsored by someone with a vested interest. I don't care what you read, but I'll keep my inocents as inocent as I can until it's their choice.

I fully concur with that ideal and try to do the same myself Let the children be children and they can make their own minds up when they become adults, until then I want them to have Morals.

I e-mailed to complain about this stuff in my favorite gun mag and got a phone call from the editor himself, Joel Hutchcroft, lettnig me know he got my e-mail and was notifying me to let me know it will not happen again.

Pretty cool in 2009 I think.

I'm with ya on this. If I need girls or a bigger thinger, I'm sure I have a pretty good idea where to go!
