Bill Mullins quotes:
>>>>>
"Humanism is a n expansiv trisyllable, a veritable "big-tent" of a word,
sheltering many varieties of performance under its spreading canvas."
<<<<<
Trisyllable? Hmm. Does the schwa not count because it has no letter, or the
'm' because its letter is not a vowel, or what?
(Meta-observation: I felt I had to add ", or what" to make it clear that I
didn't mean to pose a purely binary question.)
