Medial reconstructed pr as artificial meat

[Koontz John E]

I thought I'd warn the list of a potential problem with Siouan list posts.
Bob Rankin indicates that the KU mailer's artificial meat filter gave my
post on medial pr in Proto-Siouan (and Chiwere) eight stars.

I suppose it might have been the asterisk in the subject line, which
looked to the filter like an attempt to break up a recognizable word,
on the order of somedrugwordpart1-asterisk-somedrugwordpart2.

That's dumb of the filter.  The only reasonable way to deal with the
interruption strategy for sneaking in artificial meat is to compress all
the non-letters out of the text and look for artificial meat-matching
matching strings in the compressed text. However, I think all the filters
are dumb this way.  They weren't devised by people used to processing
Siouan data ...

Another possible problem might be having over a certain percentage of
lines with gibberish like Siouan words written in NetSiouan (or anything
else).

Anyway, you may wish to examine your artificial meat letters carefully.
