It's birthday of Harvey Milk and there is a campaign in California to make it the Harvey Milk Day. Gay organizations want to go national from there.

It's essentially intended to be the gay rights equivalent of MLK day.

I hope it goes through.  The more paid days off the better. :yeah:

Today, Harvey Milk Day... tomorrow, Cesar Chavez day... the next day, George Takei Day!

Only Harvey I know is Harvey Dent. I bet this Milk guy (whioever he is) is not half as cool as Twoface.

Yeah.  That'll never happen, because gays are icky.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.
