btw, is "Friend of Dorothy," "Family" or "Betty" still used in gay culture? I feel so out of touch these days....

A youngish (maybe mid-30s) cab driver in Vegas this summer asked my lady bandmates and I if we were "family" but I thought it was kind of an old-fashioned term.

Hivemind: is there a standard conversion of words to minutes when you're writing a speech? I need to write a 15-minute talk (that will not actually be delivered), and have no idea what ballpark to be thinking about in terms of word or page count.

I think the rule of thumb is two minutes a double-spaced page.
