Alex, not that it makes in difference but I pretty much agree with everything you said. Do you have the mailing list to members of congress so you can convince them to agree? They will probably listen to you since you are from another country.

From my stand point, I will still continue to look for a way to the catch the sky when congress starts it falling.

Chop, I understand - I just think that congress and the media have come together to make it sound like our industry spends it's entire life marketing to minors. They make it sound like most everyone looking at porn is underage (and they also try to imply that most of the models are underage as well... but that fails the stink test so they rarely go there).

The reality of the porn industry is that minor's access to porn is likely on the same level as their consumption of beer, smoking of cheap weed, and significantly less than the number that engage in sex before 18.

The industry hasn't spent any time at all trying to dig itself out of the hole that was dug for it in this regard. As a result, when someone ends up in front of congress, there is no information out there that says any different.
