Roger, do you know why it is not topical? Because these people disagree. If they did not disagree, it would be fully topical, but because they are so closeminded, it is offtopic.

It is about censorship of books. It is about bookshare policies. What could possibly be more appropriate for a Bookshare discussion list? Besides, frankly, I am having a lot of fun with this. Sometimes I will go out to a bar to find someone to argue politics with and sometimes I find an opponent and sometimes I don't. The advantage of doing it here, though, is that it can be directly related to one of the great loves of my life, books, and with email I get a little time to think.

We've strayed far beyond whether books should be denied to those under 18. People now seem to be using this mailing list as a way to exercise their political views, trot out their rhetoric, and otherwise prance upon their soapboxes. That's fine. Perhaps we can adjust our subject lines to reflect the topic: political digression or somesuch to warn readers that the topic is no longer directly related to Bookshare, but a more off-topic, philosophical debate. Then those who aren't interested in such matters can easily ignore such messages and hopefully still find the response from Bookshare staff as to the original, pertinent question. Thanks.
