Scream real loud!

As most of us know by now, Bob Dole was a pretty busy fellow all the way around this summer. Not only was he on the march against corporate-sponsored sleaze, but he found time to co-sponsor the Communications Decency Act of 1995 -- the bill that, if signed into law, will make the Internet safe for sensitive souls under the age of 18 and virtually ensure that no one over the age of 12 will feel free to go anywhere near it.

If you'd like more information -- or just to let your thoughts be known -- try some of these home page / e-mail links. (We'd give you Bob's e-mail address...but he's not on-line. Think of it this way: At least he's being consistent.)
