Well that's Ketsy, bless her socks.  I first bumped into her the other day
when I happened to revert one of her edits on
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bisexuality and she went to talk.  Nobody's
roboposter.

Funny thing is, Ketsy's *first* Vfd vote against a schools listing was
just two days ago, and she has been editing since February and
participating occasionally on VfD since early March.

So I don't think you can class her as one of these "organized inclusionists".

Try again.
