Yes, correct they've had "primary master" and "primary slave" for a few years now.

Love that word mangelhaft. I was intimate with that word in first grade. LOL

Hey Mike, I think the yellow means that you are following that person.
All of the people that I am following have yellow.
You are now yellow also as I started following you. B)

Hey aLx, getting back to gender versus sex.
I get the definition difference, but what do you make of the politically correct labeling of objects that had been labeled using the sex references male and female?

For example, we used to say take the male end and stick it into the female end. All kinds of people were offended by that and then they started using terms like "gender changer" or "gender bender" and I think its now called plug and outlet or some such thing. Can't keep up with all of the politically correct terminology.

Then, on hard drives and other hardware, they did away with master-slave configuration and I think it is now called primary and secondary and maybe some other terminology.

Hey GP,
you may have a point. Marina had the thumbs system here last year for a few days. I think it was removed due to slowing things down, and not any negative impact on it's use.

I think many people asked for the thumbs last year since there had been some, I'll call it misunderstandings by some trolls, and some people felt that the thumbs would be a way to express an opinion without getting beaten up. Many people that were beaten up by some trolls left this site. So, I can understand your point and I guess we'll see how it works.
