Well said, Gary!

Nor do I want to be jailed when said babysittees discover https: and are
in turn discovered using it (through a system I administer) to view
people indulging in disgusting and possibly painful acts.

Last week's _Chronicle_ erroneously reported that Eric Mitchell [member
of 
the Austin City Council] had shouted "Up yours" to residents of the
Swede 
Hill neighborhood at a Housing Subcommittee meeting last year.  In fact, 
Mitchell leveled a "Screw You!" to the residents.  The _Chronicle_
regrets 
the error.    -- From the January 19, 1996 issue of the Austin
