Oh, for heaven's sake. She says the NY Times prints too many stories about gender discrimination at a sports facility and you say she favors gender discrimination. That's not the type of logic I'd expect from someone of your intelligence and education.

Of course she doesn't favor gender discrimination. But the issue here is about that. And there are very serious arguments, which we shouldn't do here because it's definitely not on topic, that this issue is critical for further progress, both because of its media prominence and because of the role of golfing in business.

Please think twice before making a post with a personal attack. I did think twice, even three times, before making this post and believe it would be potentially fruitful to make your post an example of what I believe is degrading the civil order of this thread.

That's genuinely funny, CB. My post pointed out the relation between the Masters issue and gender discrimination, Paul calls me an arrogant SOB, and you think my post is the one to chide. That's worth at least a deep chuckle.

Everyone is taking this all too seriously. The issues are terribly serious; our little meanderings about them are somewhere south of trivial and irrelevant.
