In a bid to raise their voice for world peace, a California couple has formed The Global Orgasm for Peace organization, which urges everyone in the world to have an orgasm Dec. 22 while focusing on world peace.

Conceived by two San Francisco-area peace activists Donna Sheehan, 76, and Paul Reffell, 55, the organization is hoping that annually on the first day of winter, peace-lovers will stay home and make love.

"The orgasm gives out an incredible feeling of peace during it and after it," Reffell said Sunday. "Your mind is blank. It's like a meditative state. And mass meditations have been shown to make a change."

AP reports the couple's website www.globalorgasm.org has nearly 26,000 hits a day.

"The dream is to have everyone in the world (take part)," Reffell said. "And if that means laying down your gun for a few minutes, then hey, all the better."
