) but indoors, in the so called 'privacy of your own home'? 'Live free'! in the words on many 'naturalists'; we all have seen; we all know each other under our respective clothes; no 'big deal' except perhaps to the religious nuts and certain types of politicians who find even one single bare breast as something 'obscene'...remember Janet Jackson and the court ruling that a woman's breast IS obscene; what were women supposed to do, cut theirs off so that (god be helped!) that she won't commit an obscene act in front of any male; husband and Boyfriend included, as the court ruling did not specify under what circumstances a woman's breast may not be deemed as obscene...(Ever wonder what would have happened if that 'wardrobe malfunction' had occurred on a man...
oh well... then you had all the domestic spies being recruited and using 'dupes' ; it just went on totally unchecked, and ignored. Another 'oversight'...as usual, by all agencies; your tax dollars at work to keep you safe...(and secretly entertain your friends at the security agencies watching ... It is way too late to stop. There would never be any legislative branch of any govt. that would dare to unequivocally declare it illegal or clearly and honestly forbid it;50 years ago, perhaps. With ALL the electronics research and development going on now by ALL the intelligence agencies and ALL the military branches, we will ALL soon be under 24-7 scrutiny unless all electronics are knocked out everywhere...by either EMP bursts or by Cyber warfare virus's... Remember the subtitle of the film, Dr. Strangelove? It was, "Or How I Learned To Love The Bomb"...When the Bomb goes off, a massive EMP is released and then, basically, no more electronics; they're fried and we're free...will the electronic that are shielded from potential EMP bursts survive?? Who knows, those 'shields' have never been tested in any war...yet. But that clock is ticking away somewhere...

RE: Should Emoticons Be Banned?
One good purpose a few of the emoticons do serve is by insertion at certain points is that it may help others to understand that what was said, was meant as a joke/meant to be funny/ or not/ not to be taken seriously/ to be taken with sarcasm...or not.
Many times what has been posted has been misinterpreted; emoticons, a shorthand, symbolic means of clarification for those both adequate enough and those insufficiently adequate to refer to as to how they should interpret the post; but they are not guaranteed to do so for the obtuse...those types will always find some reason to start arguments...
