Australian censorship
A shipment of my book, E for Ecstasy, was siezed by Australian customs spring 1994. The importer and distributor, David Moore of Einstein's Moon, appealed and has been fighting the ban ever since. On 19/8/95 The Australian newspaper had a front page news item and editorial about the appeal being lost at a hearing the day before. Even anti-drug campaigners were quoted as saying that such a book should be allowed into the country to allow both sides of the debate to be heard.
Meanwhile, Australians may freely read and download the entire book here on Internet! And they may order Ecstasy and the Dance Culture directly from me as that has not yet been banned.
