Well, I never thought much of NAMBLA, but any organization that's
capable of provoking that many irrational emotional knee-jerk responses
*has* to have *something* good about it.  Such as addressing the problem
of arbitrary age limits on various activities.  Sexism is a much more
trendy subject than ageism, but the latter is probably more pervasive.

Whether a discussion of ageism belongs in net.motss is another question....
