I wish you had been around when net.women.only (restricted input - women only) was first suggested. I hope you are a man, maybe with a man recommending such a newsgroup there won't be so much static against it. :-) ! There are still complaints and sly remarks about net.women.only restricting its input. My feelings on the subject - let's leave things as they are, I'm getting tired of the discussion and am convinced that no matter what we want to do, what we discuss doing, what we actually do, someone, somewhere is going to be aghast at the idea. Its' a fact of life, might as well get used to it. I'm going on vacation tomorrow, so this is my last word on the subject for two weeks. Sherry Mann
