Another development is put up by El Mystico (and Janet, his lovely assistant). He does it by hypnosis but in order to live in the buildings you have to believe in them.

This has high quality, artistic pictures of full stop sex. This includes a line of naked men whose mouths are bound, waiting in line for the semen to be milked by a milkmaid sitting on a stool. Should this be in a public library? I say yes, but definitely in the adult section. There is NO way in hell an 11 year old, who would not be admitted to a rated R movie, should be able to get this book. Should we allow an 11 yr old to check out "The Story of O"? C'mon man. I'm radically for free speech and all but with kids there's got to be some limits. Robert Hey,
