        Why...

I was wondering the same thing myself. Things like this should not be on
Brickshelf.

And the best way (1) to deal with them is to very quietly drop a note to
Kevin Loch about it. He's fast at fixing those sorts of things, the pic
would be gone and the user banned in a jiffy.

1 - Of course when I say "best way" what I mean is least destructive to the
community. It may not be the best way to draw attention to one's self,
though, were that one's goal. Posting to .general, on the other hand, that
one found a oh so naughty link is an excellent way of stirring up commotion
with one's name attached, if that's what a person wants to do.

So one has to wonder at Richard's motive for posting that. Unless one is
relatively sure one already knows what Richard's motive was, that is.
