Something rather amusing happened today. I realized that one of my less computer inclined friends was never aware of our name change. He discovered Pidgin from a list of clients on the LiveJournal website, downloaded it, and was very confused as to why installing it caused Gaim to disappear. Yay for people for whom this mess is of so little importance!! ☺

New census results show that non-Hispanic whites are now a minority in one out of every ten counties in the United States.¹ Even if this continues to spread, I suspect it will not make one whit of difference in how we are perceived. We will never be granted minority status in this country.
