Thanks for that insightfull commentary on the the Mitchell Brothers.Keith. Like almost anyone who lived in SF and was involved in anything from art, to freedom of speech, collective representation in the work place, to environmentalism, the Mitchells were well known and I no doubt bumped into 'em at various functions or just walking to work past the O'Farrell.
I prefer the word "eroticism" to "porn" in hopes to retrieve the concept from the hopeless clutches of the anti-sensualists who seem intent on dictating our morals via legal concepts having more to do with our ancient past rather than the modern human who we are becomming.
Was it Vonnegut who said the definition of porn is "someone elses erotic art"? If he didn't he probably could have, and I can't help but think the Mitchells would agree. cheers.
