By Jim Nintzel WHEN YOU THINK about former Pima County Supervisor Ed Moore, you probably don't think about hot, steamy sex. But readers of Inside Tucson Business who visited a site credited to Big Ed found themselves at one of those nasty pornographic sites, featuring areas like the Original Sin Home Page. It seems Inside Tucson Business reporter Kevin Rademacher did one of those catchin'-up-with-the-former-pol pieces on Moore a couple of weeks back, highlighting his plans to start his own newspaper on the dazzling World Wide Web. Moore told Rademacher his web address would be "qman.com." Unfortunately, he meant to say "q-man.com" (the dash is very important), a homepage where his son maintains a financial site "whose mission is to educate merchants and provide quality solutions at reasonable prices." qman.com, on the other hand, is a porno site featuring areas like the Deviant Playground, described as "a site-specific interactive installation (with performance art) that focuses on body art/fetish/erotic ritual wherein the artists work to create a set--The Playground--for the audience to play on." "It was my fault," admits Moore, who neglected to tell Rademacher about the all-important dash in q-man. "I don't know all that much about the Internet. They think I set them up, but it was just a mistake." Moore expects his e-zine, which will focus on water issues (not water sports), will be ready to launch in the next few months.
