Who gets to decide that?
I don't think it's entirely appropriate that a child chasing a bouncey-ball can so easily run out into the street and get killed by a passing car. According to MMWR over 500 children per year under 14 years of age wander out into the street and and are killed by a car (US.) Another 30,000+/year are injured seriously enough to need an emergency room visit. Ban cars or at least limit them to under 5 mph! And we're not just talking about a kid seeing some bare breasts (isn't kids seeing bare breasts the most appropriate use of bare breasts?), we're talking DEAD. Or maybe the better answer is: Don't let your young kids wander out into traffic, or allow them to use table saws, etc. Sarcasm aside isn't the right answer, for starters, software interfaces for kids? -- -Barry Shein The World | bzs@TheWorld.com | http://www.TheWorld.com Purveyors to the Trade | Voice: 800-THE-WRLD | Login: Nationwide Software Tool & Die | Public Access Internet | SINCE 1989 *oo*
