Kim, I appreciate your response to my posting. Understanding the atmosphere
in which the Bill of Rights and Constitution were drafted, I believe, is
elemental to appreciating our freedoms now. They are beautifully conceived
and executed documents. Oh, that I could write so well and that all of us
could exert the extra effort it takes to use gender-netral terms instead of
either she/he, her/him, and so on.
