	67
		I had heard about Channel 67 from a friend who subscribes to SkyCable, and he was sort of complaining that it was apparently a porn channel on cable.
		On the one hand, I support freedom of expression, and SkyCable to me is well within its rights when it includes a porn site that is not accessible to all viewers but only to those who pay for the extra service.
		Of course the best thing to do if you're a SkyCable subscriber and you don't want your children exposed to porn is teach them and monitor their viewing habits.
