DE> Fido (USA, Canada, Mexico) the echo tag for this area is ASCII_ART. The

I think what Michael was asking was the meaning of "G-Rated" and
how it affect
content; I hope my previous reply(ies) help. . .

Bobby Queen -- he mostly just maintains the administrative end of his echoes,
with the basic rules being "Play Nice"!

And, I'm sure, he responds, as needed, to netmail reports of users who are NOT
playing nice!

ObASCII:

I'm pretty sure penguins would be considered G-Rated(by any other
name/designation, anywhere) by most anyone (except maybe by midget nuns! *LOL*)
