Wow; this is news to me about this Steve Pitkin; sure wasn't familiar with his name before today, anyway. Thanks alot for originally posting this, Calpernia.
Sure hope this gets some mainstream media play! 68-69TonkinGulfYaltClub has background info in his posted links within this thread. Tonk is SO right - this really needs to get out there.
I kinda sorta know (from FR) a columnist, and will privately Freepmail him this thread, just to keep his journalist endeavors private. lol.
I encourage everyone to get this story out to the media.
Getting most if not all of the current crop of Urinalists to publish anything remotely damaging to their "Fellow Traveler" is a most difficult task but we must keep hammering to paraphrase the Gipper's words "Mr Media Tear Down That Wall!"
Oh ya, here's the link to find your local media - by zip code! (Also listed in Tonk's note above.)
