Thank you for your response. As I said to a few people privately, I
wasn't intending to fight. I have found that many people, even in highly
educated circles, don't realize the amount of gender discrimination
still around. And, no, I am not a fanatic about this. Something about
the story just struck a chord. That is all.

Thank you to everyone who responded publicly and privately. As far as
this being clarinet related, I certainly do feel that it is.
Enough said.

Regards,
Starr
