Just use the third person plural in place of the singular when gender is unknown, unwanted, etc. This is very sensible, and it is (I've been told) actually a revival of a usage that had some real currency in the nn-th (I can't recall "nn") century. I've known many people in Nueva York who have agreed with this for years -- but it won't catch on because many people would rather make up an absurd and ugly new word in order to make a point.

I would particularly like one with .dvi output and drivers for a monochrome monitor and for some of the cheaper (i.e., non-PostScript) laser printers. Alan McKenney (mckenney@acf2.nyu.edu)
