Imagine, a world where gay people are in all stations of life,
even the FBI and CIA -- the thrill of gay men and women enforcing
our country's fine standards of justice throughout the world, and
at home, terrorizing those pornographers like Mapplethorpe and
Sturges. 

It would have just warmed my heart to know that our own gay
people helped the FBI seize video equipment and personal
belongings of a friend of mine, who had merely corresponded with
someone accused of having ``child pornography''. (No charges were
filed, they returned his personal items but kept the equipment.
Of course he could sue them\dots right.)

And on your ACT-UP ``vs.'' the AIDS Conference attitude -- in
Charles Linebarger's article, even Conference people said ACT-UP
was great -- why all the ``let's tone things down a bit''
editorializing? Watch out, your true feelings are showing!

Let's keep a bit of perspective, huh?
