Gabriel,
    I would appreciate it if you could add the Cincinnati information to your
list of current causes.
    BTW, I would also like a copy of your story.  It may be the kick in the
pants I need to start writing again.  Would you be interested in reading one
of mine?
Thanks,
Mark (markd@urjwc.ucla.edu)

Anything that helps ...

Sorry to take this public, but reading Gabriel of NM's note to a prospective
reader in the most recent issue recalled to me that I hadn't received his
opus either, despite my requests. So, Gabriel, did you receive my note?
Is it personal? I'll still be happy to read when you're ready to send.

Subject: protection for gay and lesbians at the university of maryland

hello:
i don't know much about it, but i think that the campus senate recently
approved the addition of sexual orientation to the university of maryland
human rights code. i don't know if that was the final step, or if it has
to be approved by some other body, but interested parties might
want to get in touch with someone in the human relations office (301) 405-
2838. the address is 1107 hornbake library, university of maryland, colleege
park, maryland 20742. the director's name is gladys brown. there was some
resistance, mainly from the campus rebulicans (proud sponsors of "straight
pride day" and instigators of an inquiry into the les-bi-gay alliance's
sga budget. lovely, eh?).

Hey there! Hi there! Ho There!
It's the Addams/Bush family!
	Well today I saw my first, of what I fear will be oh too many, family
portraits of the Bush family.  It was in an article in today's New York Times,
(something about President Bush keeping politics in the family)  I was not able
to read the entire article as I was trying to keep my breakfast down.  However
one headline placed right above the picture (which I assume is supposed to
exude "family values like the bleeding shroud of Christ.) quoted NEIL BUSH as
saying "We know when to say no, and how to stay on the straight and narrow."?
	Now, am I supposedly the only human alive that remembers this man's
involvement in the S&L scandal? Maybe that's the straight and narrow path on
top of the backs of the masses.
	And remember Kiddies, thats "family values", yes indeedy, ill defined
and belonging to a small group, "family values", not to be confused with the
old buzzwords such as "the Master Race".

just curious:
has anyone seen/heard about "breaking the code"? it's a play alan turing, the
guy who cracked the german u-boat code and is considered the father of
computers. he was also a homosexual who was forced to undergo experimental
hormonal treatments, and later committed suicide. is the play any good?
is it playing anywhere besides new york? do they have plans to travel?

Subject: Rich Gays


I don't understand why this campaign of "gays are rich
and don't need special rights" is working.  Are they
using reverse psychology or what?  I thought the
traditional conservative line was that making a lot
of money and contributing to the economy was a good
thing.  And sometimes even a reward for practicing
Christian principles.  Do they want us to believe
that gays only make their living by being evil and
conniving?
