Hi Asimov,

While this is off-topic and I don't live in Australia, I agree with you. Such governmental restrictions are plain ridiculous. Perhaps, there should be ratings for games so that youngsters may not buy them. (Hell, can't you buy cigarettes as a youngster at the local shop if you know someone there? And, perhaps, cigarettes are even worse for your health than computer games with nudity and/or violence! [No, I do _not_ smoke!])

I would say, **** 'em! No matter how many people complain, they won't listen to you. See Germany for banning Wolfenstein 3-D and DOOM 2 (removed Wolf3D secret levels) because of Nazi references and the Carmageddon series (yeah! ) in several countries.

Joe
