-Merrill, I understand what you mean. I had google checked for strict filtering ("Use strict filtering (Filter both explicit text and explicit images") because I'd been getting quite a bit of porno sites when I'd been doing some searching. Then I wanted to research some stuff about the human body, with diagrams, and I couldn't get it! Finally I realized why. I've changed by filter to moderate -- now it blocks images but not text -- and I remember to go to"No filter" if I want to see certain works of art or diagrams of the body. It would be nice if bookshare could somehow have degrees - as someone suggested, rather than adult, there could be catagories of Warning: sexual content, violence, profanity, obscenity. That still wouldn't solve the problem of kids having access to what parents don't want them to see yet, though, I suppose. In my opinion the books you have in mind could go without the Adult rating but with information in the synopsis explaining what they are. Cindy _______________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
