that sounds like a good suggestion.
and I don't think yahoo would take any action without first asking you to 
remove the page - that's usually people's first action isn't it, just an email 
saying "please remove that page our we'll take steps to have it removed".

slap it up and blmae it on the boogie if they complain.
