I have read "That's not what I meant!" a couple times in college, it was actually part of the reading for a required course. It was an extremely eye opening experience for me, and would highly suggest anyone out there read it before you waste time feeling frustrated with the opposite sex because of inherit linguistic differences. Good article Giles, I completely agree the lack of female programmers to be a HUGE problem. I have the privilege to work with some female programmers and they are great programmers, and bring a dynamic to the team that just wouldn't be there without them. Diversity is a necessary part of any good organization.
