I flipped to my Time reference, maybe I picked it up here--March 7, maybe in a newspaper. I know I found it SOMEWHERE. I'll read the article more carefully and see if it's there. However, I have the book by Leonard Sax (mentioned in the Time article) in front of me as I type: "Why Gender Matters." The particular reference may be in there. I have only read one chapter, already it has changed MY behavior to one of my male correspondents on a private email list. No kidding. I am also going to give it to a graduate student friend, an elementary reading teacher, as a graduation gift. I think this is a very important book for teachers, or girlfriends, or wives, or husbands, you get the idea, and I wish I had had it in my classroom. Some of what Dr. Sax suggests I just stumbled into on my own as a teacher, but I sure could have used his help. The Howard Griffin reference--I also have that book in front of me--date = 1960/1961. A classic in its time. People should really read that, too. The date is important, it was before Freedom Summer, 1964. Hope this helps. Andrea
