[KS] seok

[Cwiertka, K.J.]

Despite their shortcomings, I think that males are OK :-). No offence here. 
The seok exchange was very useful indeed. Thanks again!
 
Best wishes
Katarzyna

	A word to the wise. Surely she, not he?
	Must be Katherine in Polish, I'd surmise.
	All those As.

Oops, my sincere apologies to Ms. Cwierta, I did not intend to offend.  In explanation of my mistake, I was responding to Ms. Cwierta's query indirectly through the screen of T.N. Park's response to her query, hence I only had K.J. Cwierta before me. Since I have only known male Koreans to use their initials as an abbreviation of their names, I incorrectly assumed Ms. Cwierta was Mr. Cwierta.  Mea culpa.  My thanks to Aidan Foster-Carter for setting me straight, and again my apologies to Ms. Cwierta.
