Hi Ed!

"Second Baptist" is a landmark on Gay Street and "Gay" most likely was a 
person from the old days. The article goes on to say:

"City officials are going out of their way to stress that the renaming 
of Gay Street has nothing to do with the current usage of the word ‘gay’ 
as a synonym for ‘homosexual.’ Officials say the goal is to boost the 
profile of Second Baptist Church, a formerly all-Black congregation 
which has been at the location since the 1890s."

If you didn't know, straight is the ONLY choice recognized by the 
Baptists. But John told you that in different words.
