...I'm half asleep so I will only make a few points.

* Yes, I'm a Thatcher fan.

* I'm the right wing of GC. Baldur, who is himself no lefty, once said that the John Birch Society was 10 miles to my left. That's probably an exaggeration, but it gives you an idea.a

* "Society" is made up of individuals. Individual parents have told me they want me in their children's lives. I probably will never be out in the sense Todd is, but I have girls in my life and that's enough for me. I'm as out as I need to be and the response has been mostly positive because people know me as a person. I haven't come out per se, but I'm DADT. And that's good enough for me.
