The idea of having a title for women that had no more reference to marital
status than "Mr" did for men has had a very hard time in this land of
women's lib.  People persist in thinking it's just a substitute for "Miss."
I'm all for the idea of Ms but have never actually liked the form. (I
usually chuck the return-address labels that arrive in the mail each week
that have "Ms" or "Mrs," & use only the ones with my name or initials.)
