>From the Letters to the Editor of the Dublin (Ireland) _The Sunday
Independent_ (as reprinted in _The New Republic_, Oct. 24, 1994):
Sir--
I was shocked by the language of Molly McAnailly Burke's
piece on lesbian rockers, and your allowing it in a family newspaper.
The offending phrase "five writhing beauties hot for each other" should
be "five writhing beauties hot for one another," since *each other*
applies only to two.
