Re: DIS: Re: BUS: Re: OFF: [Promotor] Distribution of Proposals 7821-7830

note, can people try to check their proposals for use of the singular they? It's better than a gendered pronoun, but can we all use "e"? -Aris On Thu, Nov 3, 2016 at 9:34 PM, Owen Jacobson <o...@grimoire.ca> wrote: > >> On Nov 4, 2016, at 12:33 AM, Aris Merchant >> <thoughtso
