Did I claim "all gay people are hyperpromiscuous"? For what this is worth,
I would claim they're considerably more promiscuous on the average than
your average het. My utterly unscientific, unsubstatiated claim is that
the typical male would *like* to be considerably more promiscous than your
average female (ay, and here's the rub. pray don't forget the kleenex).
Look up different reproduction strategies, due to basic hardware
difference (sexual dimorphism). You'd do that too if it happened to you.
Once you go past the first three of four pages of hysterical propaganda on
Google you might actually run into real studies. Anyone game? I have to
work (well, pretend to).

This is getting better and better. You know 3K is utter shite how? You
just feel the number can't be right, yes? Deep inside? I'm way overposting
today, but I find this entire exchange hee-lay-rious.

The damn Federalists are at it again, another bumsrush on Oregons states
rights..

SAN FRANCISCO, California (CNN) -- The U.S.
Justice Department filed an appeal Monday to
overturn a federal judge's ruling that
upheld Oregon's doctor-assisted suicide law.
A spokesman for Oregon Attorney General
Hardy Myers said the state views the appeal
as "same story, different day."
Oregon voters approved doctor-assisted
suicide twice, in ballot initiatives in 1994
and 1997. But in November, U.S. Attorney
General John Ashcroft warned Oregon doctors
they would be prosecuted under federal law
if they prescribed lethal doses of drugs for
dying patients.

There are commercial burners which can be labeled that way. Patterns in
the unburnt section.
