Hello Thomas, To put it bluntly - S*x! TF I can't believe this went past the moderators. TF How about gender? ;-) What's *really* funny, is that the original Sex made it through, but with S*x it ended up being tagged as junk by my Bayesian plugin. -- Brigitte Current version is 2.02.3 CE | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Sex is still accepted as a term to describe gender, and the the L grammatical sense that it was used was sufficient to show that it L meant gender. Sex is more than the appropriate term. Gender is more of a reference to grammatical forms and sexual *identity*, not just sex. Because sex seems to be a dirty word, we refer to gender when we mean sex. I suspect that this has little to do with TB and I have thus erected my Maginot Trout Shield Defense System. -- Bill Blinn Technology Editor ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) - 2/11/2004 at 12:47 PM Technology Editor, Newsradio 610 WTVN, Columbus, Ohio Using The Bat! v2.02.3 CE on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 Random thought: I always wanted to be a procrastinator, but I never got around to it.
