• Comment: ...and yes, that Guardian story was the very one that prompted me to launch this AFC selection last weekend--as a resident of the very state where that happened, and as one who writes books (fledglingly) and opposes mass censorship. Second DYK nomination of mine this week, following that for Franco-Ivorian animated series Kimboo; be there for a third one in a matter of days if I get to it. Once again, wish me luck!
