>>Would the Terminatrix then be the wife of the Terminator,
or a new female movie character opposing the
Terminator?
And the "gubernatrix"? Would she be the gubernator's
(Ah-nold's) wife, or the next governess, I mean, governor
of California?
So Fritz, Terminatrix begat Gubernatrix who in turn begat Arnold?
Anyway, I think you mean GovernPerson or perhaps GovernChair
?
Ive just thought of a bad pun: At the closed Door meeting, the Chair wanted
to Table a motion, but the Sofa abstained.
Oh well
