Forgive me being emphatic and perhaps controversial, but -

	*Anyone* who is not willing to speak up on issues they feel
strongly about is undermining the principles of freedom of speech.
If we don't want rules and regulations governing our speech or our
office decorations etc., there *must* be interpersonal feedback!
(Sorry, I'm Californian.  I refer to complaining and bitchin'.)
Quoting Voltaire is nice, but let's not forget the responsibility
this attitude implies.

	I conclude that a co-worker can put up anything he or she
wants if noone objects.  The situation with an overbearing boss
is different, but this situation is different in many many ways.
If someone here had been traumatized by horses when young, I would
take down that beautiful pastoral scene.  Why should it be any different
with naked bodies?  I submit that this also applies to our lengthy
and slightly ridiculous discussion about opening doors.

	Yes? No?
