Half way in vs. half way out? This could be the next r.b.tech controversy!


Well, one does try to be politically correct and given all the claims
of indecent conduct occurring 20 or 30 years in the past a certain
level of prudence seems to be called for. After all some will
certainly argue that half way in is a whole different matter then half
way out :-)


In the famously heroic words of Capt. Lloyd Bucher,
"penetration however slight is sufficient to complete the act."

Right up there with Gen McAuliffe for catchy composition
