   Hi John and All,   
      
   Thanks for thinking about me. I have been away for a while... several years   
   ago, I had a series of Heart Attacks. Never realized that I had an   
   unidentified birth defect. As it turns out, I was born with internal female   
   and external male apparatus. Never    
   knew, until my body finally gave up and killed my health. Short form answer:   
   transition or die. I chose life, so I am now a corrected female with a   
   "transsexual past". Now I'm healthy and happy. Being a hermaphrodite is not a   
   fun condition, regardless of    
   those who may think otherwise. People, including those here, who have never   
   had to deal with it are comfortable behind their keyboards, poking fun. They   
   also poke fun at midgets and conjoined twins too, I guess.   
      
   Yes, I did an amplifier a while back for "hugeshows", and am currently   
   updating things a little. I've done that for a lot of people, as I simply   
   enjoy helping others out.    
      
   Hope all is well. So, bottom line,,,, HE is dead, but SHE is happpy, healthy,   
   and still likes to help.   
      
   Warmest Regards,   
   Stephie
