No, but when a woman understands what the men do not, then there is

1) The original sentance was written by another woman.
2) Well, I lied, there really is only one possibility.

I'm just being sexist and venting frustration. I love my wife and
women in general. The fact that they are different makes them
attractive and interesting. But that's a topic for a different mailing
list :)

Thanks. Hope that I offended noone of either sex.
