This is what one gets if one posts a job ad in a mailing list.

I'm sorry for posting an insensitive job ad. But, gentlemen,
take heart in Rowel's calculations of the probability of finding
such an applicant here. If the company (I'm not affiliated with
the company, BTW) can't find her, there is a possibility that
they'll re-consider the gender requirement.

I'll also relay the rumblings of uprising here.
