Ok, Chuq, are you going to pick up on this one?  Your claiming that the
reason you picked on Alan is because he said something negative about Trish
rather than about her statement just doesn't hold up upon examination.
Consider the literally hundreds of direct personal attacks rainbow made on the
persons he wss arguing with (if you don't think he did, go back and read his
articles.)

Personally, I think it is because she is among the identified oppressed and
has a cute name and many people just aren't willing to react to her hostility
and stereotyping they do to George.  Or consider the kind of response
that Steve Maurer gets when he take a hard-assed attitude toward women.
Well, Ms. Millines takes a hard-assed attitude toward men, and if you aren't
critical of it then you are being dishonest.
