HAHAHA! I "know" Tia. We spoke on phone 2 years ago when we were both in Canada at same time. Have followed her move closely. Last I was over I had every intention in the world to get my bum over to her place. Unfortunately it never happened.

Thanks for the links.

uh oh - Iäve forgotten most of mine. I was trilingual as a kid. Swedish, spanish english. Spoke swedish with spanish accent and english grammar. Went to catholic school in Sweden with German nuns so heard German daily for many years, then studied it. Also studied French for 4 years. Yes, I am still confused. I once walked in to a french class and didn't know what language I was speaking. I thin I answered a question with a sentense composed oout of 5 different languages.

Out of luck, I speak both. Try Welsh, I never got the point or gist of that.

Diacriticals?

I don't understand fonts and characters sets either, guess that mini-apple's just a Mac thing. I see that as the first character in Andrew Miller's sig - what do you see there?
