Re: I'm just going to put this here...
I really don't think that homosexuals having children is what tweaks Conservatives' sensibilities. First off, as we should all have figured out by now, it's not the guys actually having children. And I really don't think there's much difference at all when a baby comes out of a heterosexual woman's ...

Re: I'm just going to put this here...
I was going to say, "pay to see the SMURFS movie," but there are none coming out at that time.
Maybe there will be a film about a positive homosexual relationship? That would be ironic!

Bring one, maybe two, extra books. Either they allow you to get them signed or they don't. They won't take your books or kick you out.
And if they DON'T want him to sign extra books, but if you strike up a nice conversation with him, then maybe he'll sign them anyway...

The concern is that a meaningful percentage of any money that goes to OSC goes to oppose same-sex marriage and other Liberal causes.

I agree. Plus, from what we've seen in the poster, the gates are not "up-down" oriented, so I don't think it'll happen. Now that I've thought about it a little more, having the Earth visible would make Ender's battle room innovations even *more* groundbreaking, since no one else has liber...
