GRUYERE--I must have mis-typed it...I'm an the Brooklyn Public Library now, and when I enter OED online, I'm told there's a problem with its OED subscription.  I can't even enter in my own password.

SHIPS--Lloyd's List has changed from "she" to "it."  The story is in the Financial Times and also on CNN.com.  Queen Elizabeth II?  "It"??
