Good move. Sailor does sound much better than seaman regardless of any gender sensitivity. Our 10 yr old brains ruined seaman a long time ago.

I remember a headline in the old Pittsburgh Press one Saturday in 1985.

Some of those Greenpeace idiots had sailed over from Alaska to the shore of the USSR to protest Soviet whaling. Of course they all got picked-up and tossed in the Russian hoosegow. The State Department deputized the Mayor of Nome to go over and negotiate their release.

That headline on the morning they were expected to be sprung read,

“RELEASE OF SEAMEN EXPECTED”

LOL!

Using my 10 year old brain, let's change the name to "Jizz."
