I guess the spam comes with the territory. Or is it that
the beef comes with the territory... Or the actual cows.

Mark, where can I see this?

Ikean, I guess yours really IS the German one: “Vat der ****?!”. ;-)

> they would have to ultimately be easy glyphs to produce by hand

> @ and & are created for single words.

> Letters are the same for us but language isn’t!
