I think James mentioned that in Bluefields he only knew one family that had a flush toilet (?) It has always seemed to me that a writing system that requires an investment in expensive high tech equipment is hardly worth the name. I know, I know, if it wasn't for the Web, .....Hey, I'm biased, yes.--- but the point is that the reliance on technology (computers) makes the system less accessible for the very people who stand to benefit from it most. (Not to mention I don't write my grocery lists on a computer.) I for one have always wanted to see more interest shown in the handwritten stuff; writing it the way it looks an the monitor is not practical. _______________________________________ Joe Martin, Plain Old Ordinary Student Top Left Corner USA | ||||||||
