I suggest we use the categories used in Web Braille without abbreviations.
I have a hard time with abreviations and only the 'in' crowd would
understand them.

Do you all think it would be a good idea to put in the letters for content
like s.s.l for some strong language or s.d.s for well you get the point. I
know a lot of us are used to that on the talking program but in the word
of books there isn't anything like that. Maybe it would be a good idea to
take a survey to see what people think whether they care what content is
put in the book or just leave it alone. It doesn't matter to me, if I like
the plot then the heck with what is in it. If filters are set for children
or those that don't like adult content, I don't think anyone would be
offended.

Interesting problem. In the US you are adult enough to volunteer and get
yourself killed in war at 17. Can' 'go all the way' until you are 18. And
finally you can't have a glass of wine until you are 21.
So, I am not yet sure what the word 'adult' even means at all. Logic is
just failing me.
