<div> </div>
<div> I promised my son I would not get involved in this discussion and I respect Hal's wishes . . . so, this is not about bird names, but definitely about some people's bias/predjudice in going on and on about the subject of names etc., i.e.. putting blame on "older, white men."</div>
<div> </div>
<div>My son is older than Carmelo amd others, but he does not put down women ever. As an "older white woman" why am I and others left out of the continuting diatribes.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Just because a lot of bird names don't start with women's names doesn't mean women haven't been involved - aand contributed - through the years.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Enuf said. Just curious.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Cheers, Diann<br/>
