Minimalist

[Valerie Sutton]

Hello Bill -
I can understand your need to simplify the writing of some signs...I  
can understand your shortcuts, but that is because I know the writing  
system in advance...and what it could be...But this is why I choose  
to write simplified spellings for everyday use...we don't change the  
actual symbols as you have, but we write least amount of detail  
necessary to understand the sign and not confuse it with another  
sign...Val ;-)
