Hey thanks guys. As you can see, I've just now recovered enough to log back onto the internet. I need a glass of water.

And GALS pinman. We have a lot of GALS on this board. (OK at least one) That does not like being grouped in as a GUY. But you are a newbie so consider this a warning.

Hope you are having a wonderful birthday. I also hope you are having more than just water.

I meant that in the unisex way. Up here in the northland, we use "you guys" in the same way you use "y'all". Nothing gender biased about it. :p

I know that you meant no harm. I know that a lot of society uses this term a lot. However I take offence to it. "GUYS" is not a unisex term. It is just left over from the "good ol' boy" days. I for one am asking that I not be lumped in. We actually have an old thread somewhere about this whole discussion. We were trying to figure out words that would work. A few examples were; people, y'all, peeps, and of course Guys and Gals. Thanks for listening.
