How do you do it? And I thought being an academic taking a few months to research and write a worthy piece for publication was difficult.......I will now stop complaining :) Nice interview, Pam. 5-7 articles a day?!!

If that's an atheist meta blog joke then it's hilarious. Kudos. If you do, however, have an essay on your religious beliefs, I'd like to read it.

We think you rock. Every week, more than 40,000 visitors – gay and anti-gay alike – stop in.

And the highest compliment: YOU MAKE ME THINK. Thank you for that!! Plus, you and Kate sound like just regular, nice folks, and I'm a closet romantic who loves hearing about people in happy marriages, having good lives together. Were that everyone in the world were so content and happy. Now if Anderson Cooper were to give his interviews in HIS JAMMIES...damn!!

Nice smile Pam.

Can we say Pam’s a babe? Because that’s what I want to say.

It’s also nice to be able to put a face with the writer.

Not that those are particularly difficult to compile, but I don't have the time.

I've been revising my diss work to get done, and part of what I'm considering including is an aspect on blogging (even though I've given up that part of my own life). One of the things it does, and it'll be interesting to see how this works out, is alter the relationships between organizations and individuals who are part of queer political publics (I refuse to use community because it's too broad and, let's face it, there is no community--there are lots, and even more publics). It's a multiplication of power bases. Individuals have opportunities to reflect upon decisions made by organizations. and to challenge them (see Aravosis's recent garbage on the inclusion of "T"). Anyway, interestering perspectives, Pam. As someone whose work as an activist feels more like it's in my past as I move into more discrete academic life, it's interesting to see how these things play out. And I still can't stand HRC.
