Yet Another Public Service


I've been scouring that huge, oatmeal-caked pot that is the internet once again and have dislodged another tasty morsel. Follow this link back to the mid 70's for a nostalgic look at sex education targeted specifically at the mentally challenged but with something for all of us. This mostly sweet, occasionally funny, and only rarely "a bit creepy" film has a dated look but it's message is as vital and current as The Daily Show. An interesting sidelite: The host and narrator is named appropriately Richard Dix, that's right Dick Dix !! I can't help but wonder if there's any relationship with our frequent correspondent and euphonium enthusiast of the same name; Dixxx. http://www.ifilm.com/video/2667018/collection/1642/channel/viralvideo
Hat's off to planned parenthood for continuing their important work. They believe as I do that education beats forced sterilization any day (although after accompanying my 12 yr. old son and his class to a contemporary dance performance today I may be having 2nd thoughts.)
Keep those comments and questions coming.
