“That is my starting point for sorting through the controversy over Internet access from library computers, and protecting children from online pornography.”

“Moralistic Pecksniffs in Congress, with a misplaced trust in computer nannyware, salacious imaginations and no appreciation for how libraries are managed, have caused a needless fuss.” (from The Seattle Times – Opinions)
