I would like to add to Ed Hall's article that if you try, you usually
don't have to bend the language. An example is saying "this project
will take 4 engineer-months" instead of "this project will take
4 man-months". Or "I know a person who..." instead of "I know a man who..."

How about it? Let's give it a try, ok?
