I would like to think that the legalization of gay marriages would indeed
be a step in a trajectory of ever-broadening legally sanctioned modes of
intimate association -- polygamy, for one, but the whole gamut of familial
relationships one finds in, say, Heinlein as well. I don't know, however,
that I share your optimistic appraisal of lesbian and gay victories in the
courts. In the United States at any rate. Best, Dale
