stacy ---

please accept my sincerest apologies
  for referring to you with feminine pronouns.

i've been on this list for a couple of years now and
  nothing suggested to me that "stacy" was a male.

i --did-- notice the spelling,
  but i have female friends who use this form,
  so it didn't really help.

i assure you that no insult or other offense was intended
  by my incorrect identification of your gender.

by way of explanation [ and not as an excuse ],
  most of my email goes to either
  people whom i have already met in person or to
  people who include a gender-specific title with their name.

i hope you understand.

rob
