carl's dissuasion from it might be occasion to call for a new project --
the ancient category known as genus promiscuum, or 'promiscuous gender'. this
occurs -- and i'm not really discussing a latin word like poeta, which would
have their masc. proper format like nauta sailor, but could suffice in a pinch
for poetess, without having to invoke poetrix or the like -- where a word
for an entity always has the same gender, no matter what the actual sex, as
with h melicca =he melissa, who will always have been a she bee no matter what
she be.

shalom,

unca not having approved either whom or thereof.
