"Their stupidity? "Their newgroups?" As much as I detest AOL....
holding them accountable for usenet content is ridiculous. And it's
not a site. The name of the group is
alt.binaries.pictures.erotica.puffies. Expecting to see teddy bears
in a group with that name is as goofy as them offering to give you a
free month.
