  18. In article <NELSON.92Dec23140510@cheetah.clarkson.edu> Russ Nelson,

  26. You don't get it, Russ....the whole problem with routine circumcision is
  27. that it's done without the consent of the owner. How would you like to
  28. have the engine of your soon-to-be-yours brand new car have the cylinders
  29. burned out from lack of oil before you take ownership? It's an ethical
  30. thing, man...and if you want a foreskin for erotic reasons, then its a
  31. sexual one, too.
