I dropped in to see what it was all about. They estimated about 3,000 people in attendance. It was a downtown park block covered solid with people. I'm not into politics so I can't say which groups were there and which weren't, but I am into people and feeling good. There were a lot of beautiful people there and we all felt very good about ourselves, each other, and what we were celebrating. I fould out about a group called High Tech Gays which operates in Silicon Valley. They had a rather prominant booth and appeared to be a dominant force in organizing the event. Unlike many of you veterans out there, I attended my first gay parade in L.A. last year. I was totally blown away. I am now looking forward to my first parade in S.F. this weekend. See you there? John
