A cooperative clinic or gyn will write a scrip in advance so you can have 
some in your medicine cabinet if needed.  Highly recommended if condoms are plan 
A.  (Of course you have to find a pharmacy that stocks it.  In Fla., Walgreens 
has been a good bet.)  Also, many commonly-used birth control pills can be 
taken as a morning-after pill.  There's a chart of which ones and how many you 
take at www.not-2-late.com.  On the political side, the Morning After Pill 
Conspiracy has a national 'give a friend the morning-after pill' pledge where we 
break the prescription requirement publicly (and fax our intent to do so to the 
FDA).  That's at www.mapconspiracy.org
