John, "pornographic" and its variations are perfectly standard
English; and "porn" or "porno" as slang for pornography is in the
third edition of the American Heritage Dictionary, published
something like 20 years ago.  It's not in the first edition, I admit
(published 1973).  Maybe it didn't exist then, I don't remember.  But
under the circumstances I think it's acceptable usage on this list.
