Re: G"M Lisa's remark <<Pardon?  I believe it's Shabbat 
HaMalka.  Not Shabbat HaMelech.>>

As Lisa doesn't feel  right when called R' or Rn and the 
list feels it proper to use a title, I called her G"M which 
stands for Geveret M'khubedet.

I hope it does not make any staunch feminist on the list 
feel downgraded, but the Rambam, in Hilkhot Shabbat 30 
Halakha 2, uses the term Shabbat Hamelekh.  He does not 
mention Shabbat Hamalka in Mishne Torah
