If aanyone haass aa few sspaare aa'ss aand ss'ss, could they paasste them into aan aattaachment aand sship them off to SSteev. I'm going craazy trying to reaad hiss posstss, doin' my heaad in. Steev, don't know what OS you are running, but you might be able to remap your keyboard to put the missing letters on new keys.In Win7 is either a registry hack or third party software install. msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/goglobal/bb964665.aspxjustkeepswimming.net/keymapper/default.aspxI haven't tried either of these, but thought you might have trouble searching since you can't input search terms properly T

I think we need to just go and exceed the letter debt limits here. Obviously the economy isn't working since there aren't enough letters to go around. Letter distribution is the answer.
Don't you mean, "Ehhhhhhhh!" ?

Nice of you to offer Richard, but I think a whole pile of upside down, past their 'best before date' letters will be just as bad. Add the Coriolis effect,and it could look like upside down italics. And if the Authorities open the envelope, they won't be keeping them in order, they'll probably even mix the packets up. And I'm too polite to mention what kiwis do with vowels...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTUcf7rLPRU No, despite the ANZUS agreement, this is one crisis our trans Pacific friends are just going to have to sort out by themselves.

Remind me of some of the old "Pardon my Bloopers" radio reels, like the annoucer who said "And now let us take time to paen Breyer's ice cream (paen (meaning praise), is pronouced "pee on") or the poor Italian man who was asked "where would you find the Great Lakes" and ansered "Upper U.S.)(read with Italian accent). Or this little gem from a story I wrote about a hunter of magical beings lost in the modern world.
"It telling you, he's fay, he's a fairy" "Really, Mr. O'Bannon, we belive in embracing all genders now. And by the way, they prefer to be called "gay" or "homosexual" "No, no, you don't understand, he's a sidhe* "The correct term is "transgender" now, and again there is nothing wrong about that)
*Sidhe is pronouced "shee". It's short for Daonie Sidhe (Diana's Children) and is a Celtic term for the whole of farie kind.

Well at least he wasn't a Sheila.

No, but if I ever finish the story I may give him a gender ambigous name, like Hilary (I literally did not know that that could be a male given name until I was well into my twenties. I always assumed it was female, since my aunt is named Hilary.)
