ABWOP: **Gadarene** , are you a he or a she? I assumed a guy, but that conflicts with what Pede said a few posts back. I don’t want to drag Spivak pronouns into Haggle. (You’re welcome, Meeko.) Ben offer #8: Pedescribe, I will trade you my vase for your box of chocolates. Ben offer #9: Mahaloth, a look at my rule 14 for a look at your rule 16. ---
