I made a trip to her web site specifically to find an email address ... she
does not have one...

There is also some information about her lawsuit to the nude pictures which
are available of her on the Internet.  She dropped it.  Evidently, they were
taken by a lover during an affair she had about a decade ago while she was
still married . . .
So, this moral high ground she seems to be standing on is probably quicksand
... and her attitudes on-air might be a facade since her personal beliefs
don't seem to match... unless ... she has seen the light and changed her
attitudes (at least in public and where people might observe her anyway) ...

Perhaps these vocal secular "pillars of the community" have as many personal
character deficiencies to hide as many of the vocal religious "voices of the
straight and narrow" ... ?

By the way, how many of us librarians advocate and support EVERY piece of
the ALA program for patrons rights and freedom of access?  I wonder how many
staunch ALA advocates have copies of Hustler and Playboy sitting at home on
their coffee tables for all to peruse - their own children included? Or
handy in their own private libraries . . .

My point being: as librarians, I believe one of our challenges with our
patrons is to guide them to all the tons of good stuff that they can use and
read ... to get them hooked on quality print and Internet research material
and not so much a job of censoring what they can and cannot view on their
own...  Shouldn't we be more like coaches than gatekeepers?  Am I way off
base with this assessment?

 Aloha y'all - - - Earl J.
