<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Oh it is. I have
sent and received any number of e-mails in Chinese. It's simply a question
of having a program that will enable the input directly. Global Office
from <A href="http://www.unitype.com">www.unitype.com</A> and NJStar
Communicator from <A href="http://www.njstar.com">www.njstar.com</A> are two
programs that come to mind, the former for any of 100+ languages, the latter for
E. Asian languages specifically. Maybe one of these companies might be
willing to include SignWriting someday.</FONT></DIV>
