My efforts online have done one major thing, i can't give the details, but it really was the luck. Very lucky indeed. You would all thank me if you knew.

I had a friend in Chico named Dereck who eventually told me what being gay was like for him and it brought me to compassion like nothing else could.

The writer was smarter then most bigots and no less hateful.

I actually got a thumbs up from Depac Chopra on this. This is significant because the negative was mostly taboo.
