		<description>Yeah, Steve, I&#039;m wondering if they are hoping the whole things blows over.

Of course, what is a real concern is that if this doesn&#039;t reach the level of the national media, if it stays just under that radar, it is &lt;em&gt;still&lt;/em&gt; on the radar of the news-writers of the religious right. 

Our only hope (imo) is to draw big attention to it and hope that it&#039;s one of those things that the religious right can&#039;t use because it&#039;s so well known how discredited the &quot;study&quot; was.

I&#039;m getting really sick of the HRC not picking up on stuff like this and running with it. That&#039;s where most gay folks put their money...

I hate it that the gay community often sits around until it is too late, and then just &quot;reacts&quot; to whatever comes next. In other words, they won&#039;t do anything to actively fight this and discredit it nationally, but when it&#039;s used against us down the road and it gets embedded in other research, or politicians start using it against us, &lt;em&gt;then&lt;/em&gt; we&#039;ll be in a huff about it, when it&#039;s too damn late. I wish as a community we were much more proactive instead of reactive.</description>

		<description>I wonder if there is someone else to make aware of this? Maybe they don&#039;t read their mail?

If there was some organization (like COLAGE but maybe bigger or more politically powerful or who held sway in the scientific community) that issued a statement about it, or maybe if the news got a hold of it, then they would be forced to respond?</description>

		<description>It&#039;s as if they&#039;ve suddenly disapeared off the face of the earth.

I have received nothing but two form-letter responses. I have one more letter to send. If there&#039;s no response within a reasonable time, I&#039;ll make it an open letter as well, along with a selection of the others.

I can understand why they might ignore my notes. Technically, I have no proper standing. But ignoring yours, well that&#039;s really baffling. Your book is at the very heart of Cameron&#039;s &quot;research&quot;.</description>
