 I don't speak or write it, but can generally figure it out and since my 5X
grandfather Wil spoke it, it pleases me no end to be given an opportunity to
read.  I do understand speechifying to a seemingly empty house is
disheartening!

I would like to be able to write more Scots on the List but there just
doesn't seem to be anyone interested in replying like there used to be!

*********************************************************************

>From my point of view, don't let that stop you. I never reply in Dutch or
Frisian or whatever to folks' postings, and very rarely in Afrikaans, but I
like reading them, or trying to.

That's part of the purpose of the group in my opinion.
