They were thoroughly flamed and withdrew the ad, apologizing to all and sundry. My (then) wife was active with Hadassah and enquired about how many responses had been received. While Hadassah HQ would not give out the figures, they commented that about 2/3 of the flames had been from men. --Dick Wexelblat {seismo|decvax|ihnp4}!philabs!rlw P.S. Shana Tova!
