Personally, I get involved in this discussion because I've gotten tired of people trying to "correct" my grammar and remove epicene they based on their misguided understanding of the English language. It's annoying and drives me towards standing up publicly for epicene they when it shows up in discussion to spread around the burden of explaining that, yes, it really is proper English. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
