>Ms. Maria Panselina (if I parse her name correctly) wrote to me today,

>Language and about the way to create such signs. (See below.) Can anyone on

>Ms. Panselina, this is a message to the Sign Language Linguistics email
>list. You seem to be under the impression that I have created chemical
>signs and posted them on a website. I suspect that whatever page you found
>my address on is many years old. The only ASL web page that I have --

>-- describes my ASCII mapping of Stokoe notation for ASL and points to a
>couple of other sign language sites.
