Mick--
I'm not quite sure why you're "skeered". I'm not attacking anyone, nor am I trying to be a victim. Mark expressed a desire to be seen as talking gender-neutrally, and I'm trying to help him in that direction. What I'm saying is that if we are all going to get along, we all need to work at it -- if y'all will try, I'll try too.
