WFD 2003 Call for Papers

[Tini Pel]

Hello Charles and list.  When I read your message  CharlesI right away
thought of Stefan who can make beautiful posters in signwriting with large
signs, ones you can't help but you have to look at them. He has helped me to
make "name sign" posters for our students.
Then Josue From Columbia made a  really beautiful drawing. It might be in
the archives dated November 8, 2001. Enlarge it and it would make a
FANTASTIC poster. You may get her permission to use it.
L.I.F.E.
Tini.
