SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - . . . an extraordinary act of ongoing civil disobedience in which San Francisco has issued nearly 100 marriage licenses to gay couples. . .
. . with the blessing of newly elected Mayor Gavin Newsom, the county clerk has issued more than 150 marriage licenses to gay couples. Many of the weddings have taken place in quick civil ceremonies inside the ornate City Hall, and the building was to remain open Saturday in observance of Valentine's Day.
