Dear Beloved Reverend B illy Lloyd Hults,
Your November issue was a keeper' I
especially enjoyed the front page, "We
Two-' I went immediately and kissed my
lover' i like 'Schools are not the problem,
they are the solution" especially since I
am a teacher, and I think Salem is fu ll of
fools' I liked the part about "the
embarassment it must be causing Jesus’
and I like Peter Lindsey s essay about
women l should do one about men'
Ann
PS Ale* La Follette was a hoot'
•e the undersigned members of the
< latsop County community understate a
working democracy requires that a ll voices
be heard and respected
Ve value a
ommunity that is fille d with caring and
tree of hate
We stand tir a ly against
bigotry of any kind
Ve support equal
rights for a ll
The PAC formed in opposition to the
anti-gay in itia tiv e filed in Warrenton by
the <X A The in itia tiv e was contested by
the ACLU on behalf of city resident James
Meggert
Judge Edison ruled the wording of
the in itia tiv e must include the word
"discriminates* and the OCA abandoned th is
effort as a resu lt, saying it would come
beck later with a rewritten in itia tiv e and
start the process anew So far. It has not
done so
Ann,
Yep, you should do one about men' Please'

Dear Upper Left Edge
Glad you are w ith us here on the Oregon
Coast This is an area under heavy assault
- - particularly here in Lincoln City The
chainsaws are s w iftly decimating the last
large tracts of green space here in the city
- - some of the last trees over IOO years
of age
Hardly a day has gone by this summer
without hearing the w ail of chain- saws or
the grow I of dozers
Even now as I w rite these words I can
hear the splinter and crash of trees only
250 yards to the south
In s p irit, Rob

Dear Beloved Rev B illy,
The Sahhalie a rticle is wonderful' The
fir s t paragraph is what I've been saying
about Seaside for years, eg "What not to
do w ith a coastal community", glad to see
those words in print Since the powers
that be here seem unstoppably hell-bent on
destroying the place perhaps there is at
least a hope that it w ill become a glaring
lesson in what short- sightedness creates
Perhaps others who can t see past their
noses either, and therefore can t learn the
lessons of what happened to southern CA
(or Hl, FL, NJ, etc . ad nauseum), w ill
fin a lly have the consequences in their
faces I only hope they get the point
before ,t is too late for the rest of the
coast Keep up the good work'

Meanwhile, the Good Neighbors PAC
continues putting out inf or wition that is
factual, canvassing in Warrenton arri
maintaining advisories in Clatsop
businesses
We'11 be looking very clo sely
at local election s and doing countyvide
presinct work
We*re nonpartisan Wed lik e to see
people working within the system no matter
vhat their party a ffilia tio n We would like
to see moderate Republicans take back the
party and Democrats and Indépendants work
vigorously for human rights issues alorgj
with Republicans
This effort Isn 't about
partisan p o litic s
I t 's about the kirxl of
community we wint
I t ’s about freedom And
ju stice
We don't want to be good l i t t l e
Mabonites marching lockstep to a morality
thrust upon us by people who think th e ir's
is the only way
Ve want a ll people treated
well
We want to think for ourselves
We
wsnt to road freely
Write arxl publish
freely
How alarming
The people of the OCA do not seek a
DlftCî at the table, they want the L fth ii
I
have a great idea
le t 's not give It to
them I'm a highly-committed Christian but
there's no place for me at the table they
envision because I won't s it down unless my
homosexual friends (along with a varied
group of other citizen s who struggle for the
equal rights we are a ll ’guaranteed*) are
•ittin g right there with us. a ll
participating freely
It is absolutely essen tial that each of
us be involved m the p o litic a l process,
whether by doing precinct work, running for
o ffice, encouraging others to do so and
pledging them our support, making financial
contributions, registering ourselves and
others to vote, voting, vritirxj le tte r s, awl
signing advisories and p etition s
