Sweden-based east-coast furniture chain IKEA (trendy/chic among the homo
crowd) has aired what appears to be the first-ever gay-themed television
advertisement in NY, Philly, Washington DC and Texas.

Show your support ... for the ad and for the company ... by contacting the
head of IKEA America (Goran Carstedt) at:
	
	IKEA Holdings
	Plymouth Commons
	Plymouth Meeting, PA  19462

Be sure to mention - if you can (honestly) - that you (and not the
fundamentalist anti-gay protesters they may also hear from) are the type
of person who shops at IKEA.

Tell as many others as you can ... show support for businesses that aren't
afraid to take a risk!
