Oh, dear. Is there no place safe from politics? grin.
When I was young, I wanted to marry either a doctor or
a college professor. I thought how nice and peaceful
living as part of a college community would be. After
I married a college professor, I discovered the
university is one of the most political places in the
universe. sigh--no peaceful at all.

Well, the wintran site that is now a Viagra ad is the
one that was reachable from ACB; maybe the NFB is
conspiring with Viagra and put the ad there. grin
