Hi, We have to keep it spare because we have done a good job. It's easy to write things that are tough . For example, I have written "¡down desu!". What is that? Well, it's Spanish punctuation surrounding "I'm down", meaning "I agree to the plan", but some of it is Japanese. Maybe "let's go", or "on y va" in French. It's great that the internet lets us write that, but we would be in trouble if we started writing that way in specifications, and referring to other ones using different conventions. thanks, Rob
