Maybe its a math issue, or maybe partnered 27 years is exactly right. Either way, it shouldn't matter.

Anyways, I think it's really cool and I wonder how openly her and her partner were able to live. It would be interesting to hear her story about how early (if at all) she was able to come out in her field and what her experiences were with it. I know that people should be able to work in their field without pronouncing their sexuality to the world, but at the same time you hear it all the time for gay men. "The first gay man to xyz." You rarely hear the same things when you have lesbian women with high achievements.

Thanks for sharing!
I think darkcrystal was being sarcastic, Ender. Joking around.
