 == don't let them get you down == 

 Todd, I saw your comments on the req 4 mediation page about your sexual orientation. While I am straight, I do not like people persecuted for any reason. In case you don't know, we straight people can be quite perverted. I simply wanted to drop you a line and let you know that not all people who are straight hate gays. Don't let their disparaging comments get you down. While I do not think being gay is good at all, I understand the perils of choosing the wrong straight partner to marry are equally bad; I have researched that matter myself, finding that things in common is a major plus, the gender being the only thing that should be not in common. The pages where I have posted my research, in case you're interested are: http://www.geocities.com/Gordon_Watts32313/love.html and its mirror http://gordon_watts.tripod.com/love.html ... Take care. "
