In the "we're never satisfied" box - I now see that if I were to use [CoupleFirstNames], I'd prefer it to alternate like [FirstHeShe]. In Marriage Event Sentences [FirstHeShe] translates to "they" only.
Cathy - I'd like to warn you that recent builds of version 5 have caused me problems when using [FirstHeShe] in marriage events. I was not able to completely determine the cause, but it seems to stem from sentences of the form "[FirstHeShe] was <verb> ..." along with some other circumstances. The symptoms are that Legacy freezes up while trying to assign the event to a marriage. Legacy has to be killed, but there is apparently no damage other than a blank event left in the marriage. I reported this to Legacy folk a few days ago.
On the other hand, I'm very impressed with what Legacy does with the Event sentence when not clobbered by this bug. A sentence that comes out as "He was living in Peoria, ..." in an individual event gets magically translated to "They were living in Peoria, ..." when used as a marriage event. Wow!
