Language is slipping again around the use of the word 'man' and 'manned'. If you want a booth manned then you are looking for men. If you want it staffed, then you can find anyone who is willing to volunteer at the booth. Manned space flight...........how about piloted space flight? unmanned drones..........how about remote piloted drones? language is important.......... yes I am a crusty humorless, cranky old feminist who thought we had solved this language thang a long time ago..... -------------- yeah Dusa and Jack!!!!!!!!!! good ideas and good luck!!!!!!
