Unfortuneately Colorado passed the anti-gay ordinance. And Tampa repealed its gay ordinance. What can we do? We can boycott Colorado and Tampa. We can take our conventions elsewhere. Ski Wyoming! We can accuse everyone in Colorado of being gay. If there is no protection against discrimination, why not accuse the right wing facist of being homosexual and making sure that they are denied their rights too. I can't really think of anything else but there are a lot of intelligent people who read this newsgroup and I hope they will reply. -- \Charles Spencer Bedard/ /\ Honi soit qui mal y pense. \csb@world.std.com / / \ Write in English. \Cambridge MA USA / / \ Ecrivez en Francais, s.v.p.. \ / --------- (Trans.: Evil to he who thinks it.
