I have just finished reading the opinion of Dale L. Gillis on his views that "homosexuality is not inborn."

SEBRING — Equestrian enthusiasts and people who enjoy peace and quiet will enjoy a new development in rural Highlands County. Saddle Ridge is the first of its kind — an equestrian development that is also "green." The 1,200-acre development, near the western edge of the county between Sebring and Lake Placid, will offer 10-acre to 18-acre parcels for homes and horse farms, and will ultimately have 96 homesteads. Because of the large lot size and their agricultural zoning, many of the homesteads will be eligible for significant breaks in property taxes. ...more
