*flails about* Yours was my favourite comment, because a gender switch/anemsia where everything doesn't magically resolve at the end was one of our major concerns in writing this. ^_^ Creating the culture of women was a lot of fun too - the_acrobat and I based it on the Old Icelandic Free State (which had a minimal hierarchy) and then made it matriarchal instead of patriarchal. *g*

Anyway, I just want to say a resounding THANK YOU! and that we're both really glad you liked our story, including the part where Rodney found John and the one where John was found by the settlement. *grins*
