That reminds me, I think we should invent a substance that can act as a

You don't? My local club and most of the clubs I visit these days have
a decent percentage of female observers. If you don't, maybe y'all need
to take a hard look at the way things are done. Beer shotgun contests
following the meetings are not generally a good way to attract (all)
women. ;-)
