::Michael Nava wrote in his novel ''Burning Earth'', that the ] of ] is not quite so horrible for the homosexuals, because there are lots of darkskinned, muscular men running about there. Darkskinned because of the hot air and muscular because they are trained throw the running, to which they are condemned. So the moral of the story: Killing doesn't matter really. It's just the way to the next cruising area. Though I personaly would prefer to be reborned, and as a gay again. -- ] 16:54, 14 Jan 2004 (UTC)

:Great story. Actually, I'm kidding. I used to joke in high school that based on the gay people I'd met, ''I agree'', it would be a good idea to put them on an island and, I quote, "let them die ." It might surprise some people that I would be told things like that by fellow students, but maybe it has something to do with where I grew up, see: ], ], ]

:: I like Nava very much. His fictions are never simple detectiv fictions, there's always many social stuffs in them. My boyfriend said also often that they should put us on an island. I find it a very very bad idea. About whom should I laugh, when I am living only with gays on an island? But you get me a good idea: If they want to send human beings to Mars any way, they should chose gay astronauts and gay scientists.
