Hi, 

Re the space/place query I'd also look at Henri Lefebvre, The Production
of Space (if you aren't limiting yourself to just the pomo angle) ...
then David Harvey deals with in in some articles and then Doreen Massey
critiques him. Edward Soja, in ThirdSpace, does a pretty good job of
giving a starting point for reading others and their preoccuptations
with space.  And if you want to check out those who have begun with Deleuze
and Guattari to develop notions of Queerspace look at Gill Valentine
and Elizabeth Grosz.  I have a semi-decent bibliography and if you'd
like a copy let me know.

c.
