Oops. Well, c_b, I think you might have mentioned said spawn's gender at one point, or else I assumed.

Spawn is a good word, though. :-)

"Ancient wing". Nice name, isn't it? Don't confuse with Archaeopteris, an extinct plant genus.

It's really just that I don't care to let the whole world know the gender of my offspring, that's all. But also, I really like the word spawn.
