Rats! Another cherished myth destroyed by an inconvenient fact. I can no longer gleefully quote the old Playboy cartoon that showed a couple of nubile wenches being prodded toward the edge of the abyss by the spears of the priests, while one of them whispers to the other, "Ha, the jokes on them. I'm no virgin."
