I think you are right on your analysis, Sikorsky, as usual. If we could argue without people feeling personally attacked, it would be so much better. We get so busy ducking and defending, that we really miss other people’s points. I have been convinced to move off of my positions quite often.

Don’t feel foolish about assuming I was a man, I know, the screen name and the occupation. I do assure you that I am now, and have always been a woman (my husband can testify to that). Sometimes they even call me “sir” on the radio, to which I either ignore, or mention I have kind of a high pitched voice for a sir…even sometimes to my face (I do not look like a man), which makes me laugh. I don’t want to make anyone feel bad, I understand there aren’t many of us, so I just make a joke out of it. One thing I have found out on this thread, is that unless someone makes it clear that they are a man, or a student, I just assume that everyone is a middle aged woman…because odds are, that’s what they are.
