We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: Thank you. I'm going to go back and look at it again. I've just been fitting in LJ between my book club books, so wasn't at the forefront of these stories as I was with The Other Lot. I'm late to the party, and I thank you for your interpretation--I'm sorry I've missed so much discussion, but have been LOVING the archives!
In reply to: Jane 's message, "Hi Gayle, John could tell by the boys over-reaction to the joke just what Franz and Samson had been doing, having been there himself. Samson, being older, knew just how to handle the crude comments but Franz being young and inexperienced did not. Did you notice how the "light went on" for Franz moments later and he caught on? Being gay at that time was a very dangerous thing, the experienced knew well how to hide it since it could be deadly. Mentors were thin on the ground, no internet or gay/lesbian clubs or newsletters, no counselors, sadly most people were ignorant. Poor kids like Franz were pretty much on their own." on 16:35:17 03/27/08 Thu
