I remember that copy of the Advocate of years ago.

I learned of Peter Staley from the documentary about ACT UP and AIDS activism during the epidemic years. He was a very courageous man to be the public face of a gay man with AIDS when there was so much stigma and intolerance towards HIV and gay men back then. I think his experience working on Wall Street had a role to play.

He's kind of pretty… in a Gary Numan sort of way.

Exactly! How soon we forget, these guys quite literally put their lives on the line because they had enough of being treated like sub-humans. Stonewall, anyone?
