To houxm!mel:

You speak of working with "girl programmers" and "girl engineers".  I
wasn't aware that either AT&TIS or Lockheed was hiring children these
days.

Oh, you were referring to ADULT WOMEN as "girls"?  How unspeakably
degrading.  Did it ever occur to you that the reason your daughters
are uninterested in computing may be that they see in what contempt their
father holds professional women?
