A Pear Story

Mon Jan 21 14:34:21 UTC 2013

These discussions about spelling and about the best way to label the type
of language being used are really interesting - they're teaching me more
about the ways in which list members analyze both language and SignWriting.
So thank you Charles and KJ for the discussion, which I hope will continue
(and I hope that no one will be offended in the course of this project, as
disagreements will naturally arise, but can be productive and engaging).
Thanks!
Erika
