	You likely want to consult your lawyer to find out if the AOL case
in the 90s got over turned on appeal (if it did I haven't heard of it). If 
not, then if you filter content you take editorial responsibility for it and 
are liable or whatever it says (even if you don't know what it said because
your process is automated). You may not want to do that ...
