	It's simple: if you don't like the adult ads in CGW, _don't buy CGW_,
and then you won't have to see them, will you?

	No, you only expressed the opinion that CGW should be kept from
running the ads they want to.  Obviously, that's completely unrelated to
"telling people what they should or should not do".

>[pedantic retort as to the meaning of "low-class" snipped]

	I'll say it again.  If you feel that the content in CGW is
"low-class", no one is holding a gun to your head and forcing you to read it.
