milaacatontli

[Amapohuani at AOL.COM]

Michael:

I like the 'millacatontli' solution. It is just that   - after years and
years of seeing the incrediblly crative [to be kind and respectful]
transformations of items in transcriptions when I have been able to compare them with the
original manuscripts - I do not take anything for granted, doubles a's or
anything else.

Again, I like the 'millacatontli' possibility.

Ye ixquich.
