George: I am concerned about the repeated use of the term "Gay Rights". It seems to me that people who are gay really aren't asking for anything more than basic human rights ie; to love whom they choose, live with whom they choose, and marry whom they choose. I think all people should be accorded the same basic "Human Rights". To talk specifically about "Gay Rights" seems to me to connote that Gays are asking for special treatment. I don't think that is the case. Bill Abbott (electronic mail, May 25, 2005) Editor's Note: The most recent use of the term "Gay Rights"
