    I notice Her web site has been down for several days. I wonder if this might be good news in the form of a writing contract or? In any case Lawrie thanks for the resource and good luck.

    Actually, Lawrie isn't a "her" he's a "he".

    But I'm guessing that the site being down isn't related to a book deal; Lawrie's interest has always been in getting the info out there, and I suspect that he wouldn't sign a book deal that would limit his ability to distribute the information online.

    Last I spoke with him, he was just really busy.

    Ok, now I am thoroughly confused. I think of Lawrie as a male name because it reminds me of Lawrence. I remember an AED post I believe by Lawrie correcting someone on the matter and also a post by I believe by Kristin in the same direction. I browsed at AED and didn't find the original. I would like to know just so I do not make the same mistake again. Thanks.

    Lawrie is most definitely a guy. I've spoken to him on the phone, and if he's a woman, he's got the deepest voice of any woman I've ever run into. Not to mention that he gave some interesting anecdotes about guys that email him looking for a date... to which he replies that his wife won't permit that.

    Lawrie of BA in 4 weeks is a man. Period.

    Riiiiight. The next thing we’ll be hearing is that Gert isn’t short for Gertrude, and that he/she is a man as well. :D

    (It took a while, Gert, but I didn’t want you to think I forgot the picadore thing… ;) )

    My impression is that Gert is a "he" but I could be wrong. He/she may be a woman but he/she is definitely not androgynous:D

    Woah! I did NOT know that. I even recall coming to a conclusion that HE was a she when I went on his website and saw a picture of a woman next to his name (I guess the picture was supposed to be a nontraditional student studying or something).

    BR,

    Bill

    PS:
    HE or SHE
    The BA in 4 weeks is still VERY informative!

    Lawrie is a guy and on a post sometime ago on a.e.d. he referenced his wife which I believe is from the Coventry area in England (my recollection on the geography -- may be wrong on this.)
