[Sw-l] [x3d-public] PTASL NSM primes in BVH —Help

[Jonathan Duncan]

I think SignWriting should be able to write Protactile ASL.  Can you 
think of any situations where it would be extremely difficult to write?

Yes, it would have to be more then an Avatar for a deaf-blind, you're 
right a robot would be more like it.
