Fwd: Handwritten SW: my trip to Gallaudet

[K.J. Boal]

I certainly understood it!  I've tried handwriting SW and I like doing it, 
but I don't have a scanner attached to this computer so I use SignText for 
all my computer work.  When I do SignWriting, I usually handwrite first and 
then put it into SignText, just so I know what I'm doing!
