Joel Stein's story on comedian Sasha Baron Cohen's movie Borat stated that "any normal person over 35 is going to find [Baron Cohen's character] Borat horrifying" [Nov. 6]. I disagree; I'm 37, and although I thought the film was as vulgar and far removed from political correctness as you can get, I was not horrified.
