...winning a spot on an American Bandstand- like TV dance show, Hairspray takes us back to the era everyone loves to make fun of, the early 1960s. In theater-coiffure terms, we're in the sweet spot between Grease and Hair. Movie composer Marc Shaiman (South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut) makes his Broadway debut with a score that skillfully mimics the era's perky pop ditties, and director Jack O'Brien has put together a slick, high-spirited production.

That is why he cannot stop...

But censorship would be counter to Li's vision of an online community free to share its stuff, raw and uncut--as long as the graphic material is clearly marked. "I know how hard these writers work, and I respect it," says Li. Running the site takes 25 hours out of his week, but Li says if it helps aspiring scribes find an audience, it's worth...
