My apologies.

I should really get back to restoring the full site.

But... I've been busy recently. Haven't been able to pull my weight on 
the GZG playtest list, nor do much in the way of FT at all.

Just in case anyone couldn't figure it out for themselves, getting one's

external gender corrected, especially with an involuntary and unexpected

start to the process, well, it's hard. I've tried not to let it 
interfere overmuch with my already hectic life, but it really is the 
most difficult task I've ever attempted. Time-consuming too. *Not* 
looking forward to the surgery, just the results afterwards.

I really should have done it voluntarily at 17 rather than 47. It would 
have been easier, and the final result a lot better - had society been 
different, and the technology of today been around in 1975. But then, I 
doubt that my life would have been quite as interesting, even if almost 
certainly a lot happier. The first half of my life was an adventure, and

the type of experience only one woman in about 500 has the opportunity 
to have. And I have a son, something that would have been impossible. On

balance, I'm glad things happened the way they did.

But I'm even gladder that that part of my life is over now. Normal 
service will be resumed as soon as possible, in a few years. Same basic 
person, different packaging, and a couple of minor improvements added
:).

Now if the medics could only find out why about 1 in 60,000 of the women

with 46xy chromosomes spontaneously start feminising like I and a few 
others have, I'd be a lot happier. Even though it's been a blessing to 
everyone it's happened to, it bugs me that there's still no good 
explanation.

Sometimes SF is nowhere near as weird and incredible as Reality.

Anyway, that's my excuse. :)
