You don't mount raw devices. mount /dev/wd2s1e /articles -- As to the political correctness of it all, it is interesting to see that the politically correct drongos mostly now choose "him/her", "he/she" over the *more* politically correct "her" and "she" when the "she" in question is being viewed in a poor light ( poor light according to them, that is).
