I seem to recall an 'online chat' with Jeff Probst during this past season where someone asked him about a 'men vs. women' version of Survivor. I seem to also recall him stating (and I paraphrase due to lack of memory) 'Its an interesting idea, but i don't think it would work well'.

Anyone else remember this, or have the transcript?

Thanks,

Alan

Not sure about JP, but maybe you are thinking of this, which AZ Leo posted on the Basher board:

>>Taken from the Mark Burnett Web Chat on CBS.COM just before the Thailand Finale and after S6 filming was complete:

iwillsurvive: When will you have a girl tribe vs. a guy tribe?
Mark Burnett: Maybe one day we'll consider doing that. It just creates all kinds of problems, like whether or not we can find Challenges to keep it fair. <<

Thanks Brownroach. That looks familiar, and teh timing is right, i just got the person wrong. I find it interesting that he would use the word 'problem' after filming of S6 was complete. Then again, it could simply be a misdirection tactic.
