Elusis wrote the quoted material below:
" And don't forget the many businesses that are not queer owned, but are 
" queer friendly.  At least in Boulder, there were many businesses that 
" displayed the triangle or another similar sign protesting Amendment 2, 
" some of which were not gay owned.

How does one (most of us, really) who lives out of state go TO Colorado
without spending more money getting to those lesbigay businesses than we
will even spend in them? 

For instance: airline fares, taxes on tickets which go to support the
airport, car rentals, gasoline, sales taxes, etc.  These kinds of costs
will outweigh any money spent at lesbigay or lesbigay friendly businesses. 

I say boycott the entire state.  But as long as the Hollywood types 
continue to ski Aspen, the boycott isn't going to have much effect.
