- Three, two male, one female. All feminist...*smile*. However, both the

- seven each). Neither of the men makes very much money...barely enough
- for them to live on.

- You *live* in my area, so I'm afraid you can't move here. However, I
- was talking about a "circle of friends" kind of area, too, and you might
- be able to move into that. I don't dispute that there are many people
- who are more interested in money than ideas. However, most of the
- people I hang around with *like* working for their money and would not
- like being financially dependent on someone else. (For reference, I had
- a party recently and, just inviting all the people I consider
- medium-to-good friends, I ended up inviting over 100 people, fairly
- evenly divided between men and women. So, I think there are plenty of
- such people around...)
