Congratulations, girls! You've come a long way, baby.

In response to: > Congratulations, girls! > You've come a long way, baby. Oh, dear. Apparently not far enough. I am quite a few years beyond being a "girl," and quite a few more beyond being a "baby." I'm also not quite sure why one woman's Nobel prize is a reason to congratulate women in general. I congratulate HER. I'm sure the comments were well-intentioned, but my reaction was rather flat. - K. Wilber (iheds!kmw)
