Hey, I just want to say that nothing you've said has offended me. I too have truly enjoyed the back and forth. It is a different/rare experience from some of the discussions/debates I've had as an activist and organizer. Sometimes other activists and organizers don't know how to have respectful debate. And then you have the people you talk to on the street who after talking to them for a minute or two you discover they have fallen victim to the anti-intellectualism that has griped this country the last decade. They don't want to know and they don't want to talk about anything. That's not to say its like that all the time-because there are people who really do want to know and want to talk. And they really appreciate it. I think this has been very respectful debate and again I've enjoyed it. Even if we don't quite agree on whether people should protest Warren I think there are some things we do agree on. I.E. petitioning and lobbying don't quite cut it and that there is does need to be visible and mass protest/demonstrations across the country.

I had heard there will be a candlelight vigil later this day near Blake's. I have to wonder why anyone would plan a vigil on a minor corner in Midtown (which is no longer the gay center of Atlanta).
I would consider the following:
1 - Mormom Family History Center across from Woodrum Park.
2 - 14th and Peachtree - a much more visible corner of Atlanta.
3 - Buford Highway and Cheshire Bridge/Lenox corner - much, much more visible.
4 - Peachtree and Lenox Road intersection - great spot for media and very busy.
5 - Ebenezer Baptist Church - symbolic!
5 - East Hill, Decatur, ...
So why hide a vigil on a minor "commercial" corner???

My husband and I were at the capital building today and recorded a podcast, which I just put up: http://godlessradio.com/flyswatter/2008/11/15/napodpomo-15-protesting-prop-h8/. I might have interviewed you!
Sadly we couldn't get to the candlelight vigil as the show needed to be edited and uploaded.
There's a few pictures there as well. Enjoy!

I have uploaded an album on the Join the Impact site with photos from this afternoon's protest at this URL: http://jointheimpact.wetpaint.com/album/64569/Atlanta+Joins+the+Impact (or, just click on "Photos" in the main menu, then look for the "Atlanta Joins the Impact" album). Photos are also on my blog at www.lifeonq.com, with more coming soon. If anyone has photos they'd like to submit for the blog, please feel free to contact me. I would be especially interested in photos from the protests outside of Atlanta.

My bad! It looks correct. I didn't understand the display of the cities under the state.
