Thanks (3.50 / 4)
Thanks for organizing the event, KT.  Glad to see we gave good endorsements, too.

I think the quote of the night was from Judge Steeg, "The irony of my position is I perform marriages, but I can't even marry my partner who I've been with for...years."


That was a great moment (3.00 / 1)
from a great public servant.  Sad that it is true.

Three Cheers for KT (3.00 / 1)
Who ran the endorsement forum, as well as compiled questionnaires and handled the schedule and candidates. Thanks, KT!
