I heard something about this before, but either never heard or had forgotten the details. More information at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_turing . I...
And for an absorbing interpretation of Alan Turing's biography, try to find the BBC's video of "Breaking the Code", or else see if there's a local live...
I had seen a history channel program that had his story in it some time back. Thank you for reminding us - I think I am so blessed to have come of age after...
No doubt speakers at this event will put a pro-government spin on the topic, but all the more reason to go and hold The Center accountable to be non-partisan...
This is a pretty amazing story, and I think it just illustrates how much hostility many in law enforcement and government have toward sexuality. I'm copying...
Starchild: Is that the same community center that once replaced the former site of a libertarian bookstore back in the mid-1990's? Steven Sacramento, CA...
Yes, same one. The bookstore had been renting the space, and the owner decided to sell (I think it was an inheritance thing), though the bookstore did not...
I think this trend is all across the Pacific Coast. Which state is it that only does mail voting now? ... From: Rob Power <chair@...> Date: Wed, Nov 25,...
Oregon has voted by mail for at least 15 years. They save a ton of money by never having to purchase expensive voting machines or pay workers to staff polling...
I suppose if most voters are voting by mail anyway it would make sense to go that direction, but I would feel a lot more comfortable with it if mailed ballots...

Interesting history here, particularly in light of the news that Assemblyman John Perez is very likely going to be named as the first openly gay Speaker of the...
I'll admit it. I'm burned out on organizing our LGBT Pride Parade contingent of Libertarians here in San Francisco. Unless someone else comes forward to...
I'm looking for volunteers and support for my candidacy for my run for US Congress in the California 14th District. Also any registered Libertarians in the...
A good article here on what's changed, and what hasn't, since the first time same-sex marriage was on trial, in 1996. Love & Liberty, ((( starchild )))...
I've sent out a couple of requests for volunteers to organize the Libertarian presence at San Francisco Pride this year, and I've not seen any response. I...
We can usually get four or five East Bay Libertarians to help out. I'll do what I can, though most of my activity in the past has been as a contingent monitor...
Funny. When "top-two" first came up more than a year ago, and I was still on the LPC ExCom, and I suggested investing state party resources in a campaign to...
Rob, While I am not able to help in organizing due to distance and campaign considerations I am able to volunteer and be available at the booth as the LGBT...

This is a truly outrageous story of anti-gay discrimination at the hands of the State, much worse in my opinion then the government school in Mississippi...
That is the incredible claim being made in a pamphlet paid for and distributed by the SF Department of Public Health, "A Few Things To Know About Speed" which...
Starchild, I think you are right, it's self-serving propaganda. The gay men I associate with are the least likely to be drug users, so it's hard for me to...
