oh, not mine - yours!
I've always found it both difficult and interesting to try to assign a gender to a person before they declare themselves. Some are nice and give such things as gender and age in their profile, some even give the continent on which they usually live. Others just leave us with a guessing game. I'm not trying to suggest that's wrong or anything but sometimes it gets interesting when you're referring to him/her in a conversation and he/she/it? has said something that we want to comment on.
I *am NOT* going to embarrass myself by saying what genders I thought some of you all are, let it be said though that in some cases I was definitely, embarrassedly WRONG!

We live by each other and for each other. Alone we can do so little. Together we can do so much.
