(Fairly worksafe, no dirty images, and I believe it to be Art's Grammaw safe)

He's got an interesting blurb for what may be an interesting book -- but what struck me was the central theme:
Those who fear and hate sexuality ("erotophobes") are attacking those who appreciate or tolerate sexuality ("erotophiles"). And while erotophiles are not attempting to force erotophobes to live more sexually adventurous lives, erotophobes insist that both sides--everyone--live according to their erotophobic values.

Which, when you think about it for... about three seconds, is the way the pro-gun vs. anti-gun thing is playing out.

"War on Micromanagement" doesn't have much of a dramatic ring to it, but I think we need one.
