Your date is wrong on Mates of State (it\'s also wrong on the site you link to, the correct date can be found on the River to River official site)-- it\'s July 6, not July 7.

There's some guy --posing as KYLE --trolling this site claiming it's ok for women who are alone to let men into their apt/place of business/etc so they can be raped or robbed: next time you see him trolling, please give him a pice of your mind....
