Pervy Geeks

It's hard not to imagine some pervy geek over at Wired scanning the news and thinking to himself when he saw this headline, "Heh, he said lesbos." I can't think of any other reason why this story would make the breaking news headlines section of a TECHNOLOGY NEWS website.
"LONDON (Reuters) - A love poem written 2,600 years ago by Sappho, the greatest female poet of ancient Greece, was published on Friday for the first time since it was rediscovered last year.

Sappho's verses expressing love for her female companions on the Greek island of Lesbos have either shocked or delighted generations of readers ever since they were first composed."
See the poem itself here.
