@stevenkesslar, a number of people worked with you to help Jeffrey and Rentboy, including me. And I am ready and willing to help in any other gay- related causes you support. The Palm Springs weekend is not very important to me because I live on the east coast. I would be much more interested if the weekend events took place in or near Los Angeles
However, It would greatly matter to me if the political forum was closed. It is a place to share opinions and strategize with others, including wonderful people like @FreshFluff and @quoththeraven and many smart, funny and caring gay men.
