   revealed: this is just the tip of the iceberg

   John Carr, the National Children's Home internet
   adviser, said "In America, they've had 2,000 convictions
   since 1995 by going into virtual chat rooms as 'children'

   "Perceptions" note:

   Several years ago we analysed some aspects of crime
   in Britain. The conclusions re pedophiles was that 
   British child molesters were on average well organized
   and above all well-connected.

   Britain has twice the European rate of abduction,
   molestation and murder of children. But police (and
   customs) seem curiously constrained in their attempts
   - or non-attempts - to arrest criminal perverts.
