No Gurls Allowed

Cathy writes: Marc is a Canadian journalist and longtime member of Luke Ford's all-male, online "advisory committee." Too bad Luke can't build a cyberspace treehouse with a "NO G-U-R-L-backwards-S ALLOWED" sign out front, which considering the turn his writing has taken lately, is what I think he really wants.
Chaim Amalek writes: "The preponderance of males on Luke's online advisory board is an artifact of the circumstances of its origins. Just consider with which activities Luke first achieved fame, and ask yourself how many women would have been interested in getting down with that. No matter - we have concluded that we virtual (and, in one critical case, imaginary) friends and advisors are being phased out for the blogger friends Luke has been making in LA (through whom he occasionally gets fed). Bitter are our tears."
