Church Forbidden From Hanging Pro-Gay Marriage Banner
http://www.365gay.com/Newscon06/03/030106banner.htm

This city's historic commission has denied a request by its "Church of the Presidents" to hang a large banner in support of gay marriage on the front of the church.

The Quincy Historic District Commission raised objections about the banner's size and proposed location on the United First Parish Church, one of the city's most important landmarks, The Patriot Ledger of Quincy reported.

The 34-foot-by-4-foot sign reads "People of Faith for Marriage Equality."

Commission members stressed that their objections were related to the banner's technical dimensions and possible aesthetic effects on the historic facade of the church, home to the crypts of Presidents John Adams and John Quincy Adams, and their wives.

2. exactly, and give them 24 hours to provide said specs
since they clearly already know what they want it shouldn't be a problem . . .
