So "you know it when you see it"?  But people's standards are not 
necessarily consistent, or objective.  Do any of you remember the 
flap a few years ago when Oklahoma City banned the award-winning film 
"The Tin Drum" as child porn, and the cops there confiscated all 
copies of it?  This is a movie that the MPAA had rated "R" (mature 
but not pornographic), and it won an Oscar and a Cannes film festival 
award.
