James Traficant: “What a world. Frazzled Frances Wyndham believes she got pregnant during a sexy e-mail exchange by a paramour 1,500 miles…”

On the recordFebruary 4, 1998
What a world. Frazzled Frances Wyndham believes she got pregnant during a sexy e-mail exchange by a paramour 1,500 miles away. That is right: pregnant. Frances said, and I quote, ``His words were so sexy, I was totally seduced.'' Talk about instant connection. This is immaculate reception, Mr. Speaker. And if that is not enough to crash our hard drive, think about the legal implications. What is next? Bill Gates paying child support? Microsoft, my eye. Mr. Speaker, it is time for Congress to act. The computers do not need a V-chip; Internet needs a chastity chip. I would say, ``Beam me up,'' but that may be a new delivery system for e-mail.

Editor's note · Context
