Rosemary,
I can't take questions since I will be behind a camera, as well as
directing the other 4 cameras, but perhaps someone else on this list could
bring forward your question. Ideally the question would be stated more
concisely. Would shortening it to this take away from your question?: "Why
have you concentrated your efforts on the topic of homosexuality and sexual
issues? Are there not more important topics to address?"
Good question!
I'm off to prep some cameras,
-Daniel
