If internet access is so much of an issue, perhaps the computers should be put in a seperate room where you have to be over 16 or 18 to enter and use or have your parents sign a permission slip. (rolfwind)
We discussed doing something like this at the library at which I work back when the state asked us to give an estimate of the costs of something like this, to determine if they should make it a law. Our response was that we'd have to build a room in which to put the "adult" machines with Internet access, hire a staff member (at combat pay!) to sit in there and monitor the room, answer questions and get harrassed by people who've just been viewing porn online and buy all kinds of interesting cleaning materials for the inevitable messes that would result from those people who were viewing porn online.
