I truly hope that everyone on this list is beyond the petty 'sexism'
meme that Kathryn often refers to. It is sometimes hard for
me to tell whether or not people try to *create* a rift between the
genders, or alleviating one. At bare minimum, extropian list members
should be able to understand that a good post is a good post, regardless
of sex, age or race. Forgive me if it appears that I am being blind
toward this situation, but I think we shouldn't have to ask the sort
of question as stated above.

Ingredi Externus!
