I am here coining the term "LIME".  It is a lesser form of a lemon.  I
will here draw the differences and the reason for the term.

A LIME is a tale that concerns sex.  It does not go into detail go into
detail.

A LEMON ( in my book) contains a graphic in detail depiction of a sexual
art ment for pornographic means.

Okay... umm, then what would an 'Orange' be?

And should I even ask about 'Passion Fruits'?

In my opinion, if you wanted to coin a term for a "lesser form of a lemon"
your best bet would be "lemonade".  Take a lemon and dilute w/ water and
sugar.  Not near as bitter and far more palatable (readable) than straight
lemon...

I like a good, "sexy" story.  But to string together a handful of sex scenes
does not make a story worth reading...
