The most recent newsletter is available here

Joe Pilot/Don Smith
Joe and Don’s '15 minutes of fame' has been extended once more. The latest edition of Prime Times, Prime Timers World Wide’s newsletter, has an article about advances and acceptance of the gay community. That article includes a photo for Joe and Don with the caption "Joe Pilot and Don Smith have been together for 33 years. The Chicago Primetimers took the occasion of attending the Toronto convention in 2009 to make it ‘official’ by getting legally married at the Toronto City Hall. Marriage is legal across the entire country of Canada; in the United States, only five states have full marriage rights." Hmm, if they had waited a month they could have included New York in the list of states with full marriage rights.
