thanks bob...however being on the non orthodox side of the kol isha issue, i 
am curious to hear how many on the list who are actually offended by the kol 
isha ruling would also not attend an all woman event that excluded men.  I 
would not personally attend a concert where I knew women were excluded from 
performing, would the opposite be true from the women on the list?
