[bksvol-discuss] Re: overly sensative adult content ratings?

Amber, believe this or not, I validated a children's book awhile back
& *it* got an adult content rating! Go figure! In fact it was so funny
to me that I posted it to the volunteer list. How the infamous tool
reached *that* conclusion is way beyond me.

Well we're expecting some weather here & it's kickin my vertigo up so
I'm gonna say goodnight & take some mecklezine & go to la-la land.
Drugs are sometimes a girl's best friend--forget about the diamonds!
