Query: "Annie Sprinkle"

[Gerald Cohen]

        The Wall Street Journal (Sept. 20, 2000, p.A27/3-6, "What's Worse,
Imaginary Violence or Real Sex?") contains an unclear lexical item which
is intentionally left undefined; the words in parentheses ("don't ask") are
present in the article:
        (col. 5): "...Not everyone is offended by sexually explicit
materials, but anyone might be worried that it's becoming impossible to
draw any lines at all.  One Florida university was recently chastised by a
judge because it stopped a coed from projecting an Annie Sprinkle (don't
ask) video on the outside wall of a campus building for a party she was
throwing."
        The term "Annie Sprinkle" does not appear in _RHHDAS_.  Would
anyone on this list perhaps know its meaning ?
