This question centers on "forbidden information", concepts or ideas you think society should not be exposed to. Try NOT to include ideas of situational appropriateness - like the Disney channel showing an R rated movie. You can normally view the R rated movie elsewhere. This question deals with humanity as a whole. Are there any types of information that you believe society should not be allowed to see? If so, what is your justification.

When asking who the best Heavyweight Champion was, Joe Louis' name comes up often, though Ali's does more often. Had Joe Louis never made his comeback (in which he went 8-2 with 3 KOs) he would have retired with a 61-1 record with 52 KOs. His one loss was a fluke vs Max Schmeling. If he never took on Max the first time, he would have retired at 61-0, if he would have beaten Schmeling the first time he'd have been done at 62-0. On top of this great achievement, he won the title on June 22nd 1937, and retired it on March 1st 1949, giving him nearly a 12 year reign as Champion. Also defending his belt 26 times (most say 25 and wikipedia has him at 27, I am going off of boxrec).

In conclusion would a guy named Joe Louis, who retired with a record of 61 or 62-0 with a record (nearly) 12 year reign (the record still stands in EVERY division) and a record 26 title defenses (the record still stands in EVERY division) be universally recognised as the greatest Heavyweight Champion ever?

I saw a gentic doctor who basically told me nothing, (actually what she said was I should have been inseminated with someone else's sperm, which was not helpful at all) so I wanted to poll other parents of Autistic children who have had more than one child.

How many of your children are autistic (and how many are not) and what are their sexes? Thanks for any help. No rude commments please.

I know autism is more common in boys than girls so parents of girl children who are autistic who have gone on to have boys will be doubly helpful.

It went out all of a sudden it was working fine one minute and then not at all the next. When I push the pedal down it doesn't seem to engage the clutch at all. Any ideas as to what could be the problem would be greatly appreciated.

I had an ultrasound yesterday at 19wks and straight away the woman said it was a boy, so maybe it wasn't hard to tell.

The 2d ultrasound looks so much clearer than the ones i've seen on the tele. I had a photo done of his head, so you can see the outline of the nose, lips and chin, it's amazing.

But do you think she's correct, as she found it so quickly.

I hope shes right for the sake of shopping wise hehe. Thanks xx

Now I have a passport for her, we are coming from New York, even though she is 21, she looks and acts like shes 14. Do you think I wll have any problem getting her into the casinos. She wants to play the slots. Has anyone else had a problem getting into a casino because they looked very young. Nobody will believe that shes 21, but as long as I have a passport do you think I will a problem. Thanks

I have very strong feelings about this- I just don't understand why the 'last hurah' is important- if you are still clinging to the 'freedom' of bachelorhood; don't get married! I just feel that it is VERY disrespectful to have a celebration for your wedding that includes paying some random woman (or man) to take their clothes off for you. I have other reasons, but in relation to my engagement this is my main point. I feel very strongly about this, and I wonder if I am the only woman who feels this way- it seems that I am. When it has come up, people look at me like I'm crazy to feel that a strip club is not the right place to celebrate your engagement. I have never asked my fiance to not go to other bachelor parties at strip clubs, (although I still don't like it) but I just don't want his to be at one. Am I being unreasonable?

I scrub dishes in sink, with soap, 2-3 times, with a scrubby pad or brush, rinse well, put in the dishwasher.
After the cycle runs the dishes come out, and some of them are still left with residue.

We use top-quality detergent and rinse aid. Why is there residue. I don't get it. Is our dishwasher not rinsing enough?

When another family member does the dishes(which is not very often) she gets them clean with very little effort. But when I do all the above things, they are still dirty. I just don't get it....
