They are reading _Playboy_ and _Penthouse_, like they always have.


In the '60s, Playboy did attract a few intellectuals who actually
*read* the articles. Nowadays, I wouldn't want to be seen with a
copy, though. Nixon was good for something, I guess. After he
resigned, we didn't have Dick Nixon to kick around; however, it was
certainly fun while it lasted... as I recall, Playboy went downhill
quickly about '74 or so.
