Well, yeah.  I can imagine someone of an age and ability to receive
PICList, but whose parents were still worried about them being exposed
to "pornography."  Even more likely on some of the less advanced 
technical
mailing lists (remote control stuff, BEAM robotics, rocketry...)

For that matter, I can unfortunately also imagine a company who has
decided that the easiest way to avoid sexual harassment lawsuits is
to simply not permit any pictures to be distributed via email...

(cisco had something of an edict against "peer to peer software" in 
their
computing policy a couple years back, which most people found rather 
amusing.
Looks like it is gone now, though...)
