CLI whenever possible, and female to boot.  I'm not sure what prompted
me to use 'they'.

Yeah, and to be honest, I've gotten a lot of help from debian-user, so
my previous post was a bit unfair.

As a debian-using, computer-game-playing, skiing, mountain-biking,
ice-hockey-playing, martial-arts-practicing coder chica, I have a fair
number of online marriage proposals under my belt.  But to be honest,
they're fun, and a bit of an ego-boost, even if they're quite silly =P

(Now if only I played FPS games with any skill ...)
