Dude, it's a (political) discussion board. It's a story that's in our local paper today. As I said the issue toward's gender neutral terms extends beyond just this story and Berkeley. No I don't sit around thinking about this. But clearly it's important to some people.

Although, they do seem quite clueless as to where electricity comes from...
