No - it's in the story, it's not gratuitous, and RB has never been prudish about such things.

Gee, Mr. Spaulding. By your definition Jesus was the biggest prude of all time.

And yes, I know the story of Invisible Boy.

I don't know about that, but I'll tell you what (seriously); I just got an email from Mr B inviting us over on Monday, so if you like I could ask him about the nudity, but I believe he'll say the same thing I just did.

There you go Mr. Spaulding. Ask Mr. Bradbury about that! And while you are there ask a little further as well. Does he have any moral wall when it has to do with boys and nudity.

Well I believe this question teeters on the edge of good taste, and my part in this conversation ends here.

My best to you sir.

Teeters is a good word.

"Teeters" is better than "flirts".

After consideration, I thought so, too.
