Join me in NYC for a 10Questions meetup party

The 10questions.com submission period is coming to an end in 5 more days. Thanks to may computer woes, I've been remiss at following up on this fantastic opportunity to ask the hard questions to the candidates; but not any more.

I am calling on all the NYC-based sponsors of 10Questions.com to come spend Sunday afternoon with me at Rapture Cafe in the East Village. I'll be there from 3:00pm to 6:00pm downing coffees and making video clips of everybody who wants to submit a clip to 10questions.

What does that mean? If you don't have a digital camera with video capabilities, a computer with WiFi or both, just bring just yourself and the questions you would like to submit. We have the cameras, we have the computers. Rapture Cafe has the coffee, beer and WiFi.

Place : Rapture Cafe - Avenue A between 13th & 12th Streets
Time : 3pm - 6pm

So take this post to starting thinking out loud what you'd like to ask the presidential candidates.

QUOTES

Data from the 2002 survey indicate that by age 20, 77% of respondents had had sex, 75% had had premarital sex, and 12% had married; by age 44, 95% of respondents (94% of women, 96% of men, and 97% of those who had ever had sex) had had premarital sex. Even among those who abstained until at least age 20, 81% had had premarital sex by age 44. Among cohorts of women turning 15 between 1964 and 1993, at least 91% had had premarital sex by age 30. Among those turning 15 between 1954 and 1963, 82% had had premarital sex by age 30, and 88% had done so by age 44.

Conclusions. Almost all Americans have sex before marrying. These findings argue for education and interventions that provide the skills and information people need to protect themselves from unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases once they become sexually active, regardless of marital status.
