| <p> <font size=+2> GayUniverse was created in 1995 | |
| as a free service to the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgendered communities. | |
| It is certainly among the most popular of Gay Websites, averaging 4.7 million hits (requests for files) every | |
| month. It is Gay owned owned and operated. </font> | |
| </p> | |
| <p><font size=+2><b> Kevin</b> is our Website Developer | |
| is in charge of web programming, <b>Jim</b> is our Web Manager and also | |
| runs our day to day operations. <b>Judy</b> keeps the books, pays the taxes | |
| and conducts research. Our headquarters is in Milwaukee, | |
| Wisconsin USA.</font> | |
| <p><font size=+2> We all have full time jobs, besides | |
| running Gay Universe, but one of us, usually Jim, because he works at home, | |
| is on-line every day, making sure that everything is working OK. Jim handles | |
| all email and written requests from guests and members and others interested | |
| in Gay Universe.</font> | |

| <br><font size=+2><b> Kevin</b> is 39 years old | |
| and lives with his life partner "Brian" in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. They are | |
| both "out". Kevin is a software engineer for a Fortune 500 company. He | |
| graduated from Michigan State University. He's an accomplished sculptor | |
| ( go <a href="http://www.faxus.com/gu-annex/index.html">here</a> to see | |
| some of his work) and artist. Kevin created all of the software that runs | |
| Gay Universe. He is my mentor.</font> | |
| <p><font size=+2><b> Brian</b> is 26 years old | |
| and a student at UW Milwaukee. Brian is the creator of <a href="fever.html">Charlotte | |
| Fever</a>! Brian writes passionately and lives enroute to Blockbuster. | |
| He really enjoys movies and his goal is to write screenplays professionally. | |
| He's very talented and he'll watch anything and everything to the very | |
| end!</font> | |
| <p><font size=+2><b> Jim</b> is 44 years old, Single, | |
| Gay and out, living also in Milwaukee. He's a veteran of the U.S. Army | |
| Field Artillery (1973-1980) and manages an apartment building in Milwaukee. Jim | |
| runs the day to day operation at GayUniverse. If you have a problem he's the guy | |
| who will fix it.</font> | |
| <p><font size=+2><b> Judy</b> is Kevin's older | |
| sister. She's 39 years old, and works as a para-legal at a law firm in Chicago, where she lives. She's a hard worker and | |
| enjoys the martial arts. I'm trying to get her to move to Milwaukee | |
| but she's very stubborn.</font> | |

| <hr SIZE=19 WIDTH="100%"> | |
| <p><font size=+2> <b>S</b>oon after GayUniverse | |
| was created we discovered that the email addresses of the thousands of | |
| people who had posted personals were being collected and sold to spammers. | |
| To protect those email addresses Kevin has developed the system we call | |
| "Shielded Email".</font> | |
| <p><font size=+2> <b>W</b>e originally intended | |
| GayUniverse to be a totally free Website, but to stay on-line and grow, | |
| we need to make GayUniverse pay for itself. Your membership helps keep | |
| GayUniverse on-line. Our goal is to provide a reliable Website that is | |
| open to the alternate lifestyles community all over the world. Because | |
| many guests cannot afford to pay for access we have kept the Chat Rooms | |
| and the Boards | |
| <b>free</b> and we provide membership Grants to folks who, | |
| for whatever good reason, cannot pay for membership.</font> | |
| <p><font size=+2> <b> I</b>n addition, a portion | |
| of every membership payment is used to support disadvantaged <b><a href="world_vision.html">children</a></b> | |
| and families in the poverty stricken island nation of <b><a href="world_vision.html">Haiti</a></b>.</font> | |
| <p><font size=+2> <b> B</b>ecause so many of our | |
| guests and Members access GayUniverse with WebTV or older computers, we've | |
| kept the layout simple and we resist to urge to change anything unless | |
| it's really necessary. However GayUniverse <b>Chat</b> will not run on | |
| browsers that do not support frames.</font> | |
| <p><font size=+2> <b>W</b>e do not actively | |
| promote GayUniverse because promotions are expensive and we can't afford | |
| it. We rely on our guests and Members to promote Gay Universe, so please | |
| tell your friends about us, promote your postings in the popular Internet | |
| search engines and add us to your Links page.</font> | |
| <p><font size=+2> <b>W</b>e're here for you! Thanks | |
| for your support!</font> | |
