Calling in gay
If one of your coworkers is gay or lesbian, there's a chance you won't see him or her in the office Wednesday.
The web-mobilized activist group Join the Impact is organizing "Day Without a Gay," encouraging gays and lesbians across the country to "call in gay" to work. The idea is to demonstrate, in the wake of attacks on gay civil rights such as California's Prop. 8, the economic clout of American's LGBT community.
Gays and lesbians who take Wednesday off are further encouraged to volunteer their suddenly free time to service groups. (There are at least four such drives in Utah, according to this web site.)
