Ranty, there is no but. It doesn't affect me and I don't discriminate. I've hired openly gay people and we talk about our significant others all the time. I couldn't care less who they are with. We ski together, fish together, eat together, we've even been in the same church together.


As with all civil liberties issues our country has tackled, they have all taken time. This one will too and in the end, common sense will prevail. The only thing that galvanizes people, for or against, are people who feel it is their right to tell the other side what to believe. You do that very well. I will defer my opinions to you. After all, you're a climatologist, transportation engineer, political science expert, financial expert, foreign affairs expert, sociologist, etc..... Pretty f'n funny, if you ask me.
