Heavens, no!  In fact, I coordinate the local nudist SIG in Los Angeles.

"Mensa", on the other hand, is a registered trademark.  Its use by  Playboy
has  legal  implications.  Of  course,  the Home Office is usually happy to
accept any free publcity.  I was just wondering why the general  membership
hadn't  heard  about this from them.  No call went out for model candidates
that I know of.  So where and how did Playboy find them?
