Subject: THANK YOU
Pam Young's column, "Out on a limb" is great. Her article about the death of a parent hit the nail on the head. My partner's mother died in January and I was that "other woman" at the funeral. Needless to say, my partner is not out to her family and the funeral was as you described when you have to keep the "secret". I'm going to get Tricia to read and maybe approach her about at least how our possible deaths will be handled, if not about coming out to her dad. Thank you,
-Desiree Cortez

Subject: ENJOYED YOUR SITE
I enjoyed your page on the internet. Can you recommend a site that sells some of those head peices and masks. I am planning on coming to New Orleans around Oct, and want to dress up. I am a GIRL and want to dress up really over the edge, almost like a show girl (legs and all) and I want one of those fancy head pieces or masks to go with my outfit. All of the sites I have seen so far on the Net were not what I'm looking for. Perhaps you can help. I look forward to your reply. Thanks again.,

Subject: Dissertation Participants Needed
Needed: Employed Gay Men willing to participate in a Ph.D. Dissertation.
I am a graduate student in counseling psychology at Teachers College, Columbia University. I am currently collecting data for my dissertation which focuses on gay men, and their perceptions of themselves and of their work. It is my hope that you might be able to help me locate men who might be willing to participate in this study, by posting and/or circulateing this message and asking men to contact me. I will need participants' mailing addresses in order to send them the anonymous questionnaire. Please note that giving me a name and address does not obligate anyone to participate.
Each participant will be mailed an anonymous questionnaire that takes approximately 30 minutes to complete. All data collection will be strictly confidential and all analyses will be based on the respondents taken together as a group. RESULTS WILL BE REPORTED IN GENERAL STATISTICAL FORM AND NEVER WITH REFERENCE TO ANY INDIVIDUAL OR ORGANIZATION.
If you have any questions regarding my request to help me locate potential participants please feel free to contact me. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you!

Subject: Can We Work Together?
Hi, This is Russ Finkelstein from the Contact Center Network (http://www.contact.org), a nonprofit organization that maintains one of the most comprehensive directories of nonprofit resources on the Web, with searchable links to over 10, 000 nonprofit Websites in 110 countries.
I am writing you now to invite you to take part in a new initiative we are launching called Action Without Borders-a Global Week of Action and ideas.
Planned for October 18-25, 1997, Action Without Borders is something that has never been done before: a week of action during which people and organizations around the world will work together on a variety of volunteering and community projects, build new relationships, and share ideas and successes.
Taking part in Action Without Borders is easy. All projects during this week-whether local or international-will be organized independently by different organizations, and coordinated and publicized through the Web and other media. Individuals can simply pick the projects they like, or help organize and promote AWB in their school, workplace or house of worship.
So far, the response to this initiative has been wonderful. International participants include: APC-the Association for Progressive Communications (www.apc.org) a global "network of networks" that jointly provide Internet access and other information-sharing tools to over 40,000 organizations and community leaders in 133 countries CIVICUS, the World Alliance for Citizen Participation (www.civicus.org) with members in over 50 countries. I*EARN (www.igc.apc.org/iearn/) which links children and youth around the world in learning and service projects.
In addition, individuals and local organizations in 30 countries are already taking part, and Yahoo and ChatPlanet, two of the most visited sites on the Web, have agreed to provide free banners on their sites to help promote Action Without Borders.
To learn more about this project, and about how your organization can take part, please go to http://www.contact.org and click on the Action Without Borders link.
We look forward to your reply and to working with you on this project. (Please feel free to forward this message to other people.) Thanks and regards,
-Russ Finkelstein
