Well, I like nude pictures, but I 'll go to such lists to download nude
pictures, not here.
This picture is beautiful and I don't think anyone should really be
offended. But, if one views it from Douglas angle, one would be able to see
that it does post a problem to him who has the responsibility of managing
the list.
If he had allowed this one, he would have to allow another one, maybe not so
artistic, maybe more of a porno style. Where does he draw the line to
determine that this one is ok but not the other one? Once you get to this
point, you know that you could only say -- no nude pictures on this list ---
the same as Douglas did.
