	I agree with the Nearnet staff.  Pornography is inappropriate
for children.  (You don't see it in the school libraries do you?)  I
also think it is going to VERY hard to regulate the connection to make
sure it is unavailable.  (No ftp would help a great deal.)

	I'm sure if this connection is allowed, then some will leak through,
and a parent will be very upset, and this will have to be tested in the
courts to see who is liable.

Right.  I take it you wouldn't care if the public school libraries had
X-rated magazine's and movies in them.  First you get the children's
books that describe Homosexuality as being OK, then X-rated magazines,
then X-rated video tapes...  You start with something little, or a vague
law, then you test it, and work it in slowly.

I'm sorry, but I still have morals and values, and pornography in schools
is definitely NOT part of them.

   But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already
   committed adultery with her in his heart.			Matt. 5:28

  Any child can walk up to Out of Town News at Harvard Square and
browse through Playboy, Penthouse, Hustler, etc.  The same is true at
countless other stores and newsstands.  Who is responsible?  Who is
liable?
  When I was in elementary school, I would often go to the Brookline

were "Our Bodies, Ourselves," "How to Say No to a Rapist, and

Why not deal with inappropriate material in the same way that the  
government handled things when brouha about alt.sex.pictures happened  
a couple years ago.  First they tried to ban the whole thing. When  
that turned out to be impossible, they banned it from US Government  
funded sites and computers.

Since many schools are funded by the Government, this should apply to  
them as well.  The schools that are not funded by the government can  
be policed by a responsible adult(s) and appropriate policies for  
their sites.

It doesn't seem to me possible for the network provider to prevent a  
child from getting access to such material short of completely  
denying access.  


It also doesn't seem to me to be the responsibility of the network  
provider to enforce laws governing moral standards.  This is the  
purview of the supervisors of the computers and terminals that the  
children are using.

Basically, I'm saying that children should be supervised, and the  
supervisor should prevent them from accessing things that they  
shouldn't access.

Just a suggestion,

Problem Description:
                A IBM CE will be visiting BBN at 0630 EDT on 10/1 to place
               two RTs of NSS19 on the UPS. When IBM installed the T1
               node, they failed to install those two on the UPS making
               them sensitive to power hits at BBN. Merit did not provide
               a window, but it probably will be less than a half hour.

Problem Solution:
               The IBM CE installed the 2 RT's to the the UPS and they are
               back up and operational.
