Right now, same-sex couples are denied the protection which is afforded to married couples. This S.F. ordinance would have extended some limited insurance coverage to partners of city workers. Apparently, you would have to "register" your partner with the city, and could not change your partner more than every six months. Ludicrous. -- /Steve Dyer decvax!bbncca!sdyer sdyer@bbncca
