[QUOTE="Chuckie, post: 3980609, member: 42584"] That is not a serious suggestion for a "neutral form of respectful greeting for both male and female individuals/persons/entities . . . things", to replace currently used greetings like 'ma'am', 'Sir'. 'Miss', 'Mrs.'. 'Ms', etc. as was being asked by [I]HMCF(FMF)Ret [/I]in his interesting comment. Simply pondering about certain possibilities in an exercise of mental gymnastics does not equate to embracing those same possibilities. It IS an interesting question about what form of neutral gender greeting could be used to replace what has been in place for so long. I would be interested in hearing what serious replacement possibilities (if any) pop-up. [/QUOTE]
