	+1 Nathan Parker I'd suggest using the Fluids Gate translation, instead of Humor (which in this usage should be spelled Humour, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humorism), is misleading to most people. The Ye in Yem Men is the same character as in Jin Ye, translated as fluids (as in body fluids). add comment
