Fascinating.  This same commission, arguing that there's been no 
serious reason to fear prosecution since 1974, is the bunch who 
sent out the notices that so frightened 7-11 that 7-11 no longer
carries Playboy or Penthouse.

No "chilling effect"?  Perhaps they wrote that BEFORE they scared
the pants on to 7-11.

Playboy has reportedly planned a "Girls of 7-11" feature in retaliation.
*I* am no longer shopping there.  

By the way, a chain in Cleveland, confronted with customers who felt
that Playboy and Penthouse SHOULD be removed from the shelves, took
a "vote".  The vote went overwhelmingly in favor of keeping the magazines.
