Important! Shennanigans Alert! Let’s Help the AFA! *nudge, wink* — Apparently, the Hallmark Cards people have issued a new line of cards — congratulating same-sex couples on their marriages, and sympathy cards for gay people who are just coming out. The AFA, fine people that they are, have started the snappy website, linked above, providing helpful news about this abomination, including links to mail and email Hallmark.
