Please bear with me if you've already seen it... I found sex.1 to neither particularly funny nor personally offensive. However, the controversy surrounding this issue reflects badly on the Free Software Foundation. Frankly, I'm more than a little surprised that it was ever included in the emacs distribution. A little humor now and then is fine, but when it accompanies a major software distribution it should be as inoffensive as possible, and certainly shouldn't be racially, ethnically, or sexually based. For this reason I think it should be removed from future emacs distributions. Dave Sill dsill@nswc-oas.arpa
