Well I guess I'll have to apply for a sex change first then :D

Thank you - I will definitely participate and then we can see if I was
an asset with the wisdom of hindsight.

I'll have to think about that one a bit. I get the impression that the
few females hanging around in the community are fairly outspoken once
they've bothered participating at all, but I am actually not aware of
how many are present but silent. You may be right that some may pop up
if encouraged.

There is a certain stereotypical irony to the idea of putting a chick in
charge of the social skills track, but I think it may level things out a
bit. If you're looking for a token woman, you know where to find me :)
