It clarifies the lack of vocalization in their pronunciation, at any rate, and so is a major help in teaching students to read ME.<BR/><BR/>But yeah, good work making it past the rocks and shoals and scary stuff!!!Bardiachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11846065504793800266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15231380.post-1170450840371856242007-02-02T16:14:00.000-05:002007-02-02T16:14:00.000-05:00I think AW's r0x0rs must be loosely translated as ...I think AW's <I>r0x0rs</I> must be loosely translated as "Dude, that rocks!"

Many people who work on that first word in my title *stay* working on it for their entire careers, but I'm more like my diss advisor (at least in terms of moving around subjects). I think what connects my interests, though, is that I spend much more time thinking about audience and readers and reception than about authors and sources. (Hm, there's a whole post in that thought...)<BR/><BR/>To all- thansk for the congrats and glad you all think it looks good! Put your pre-orders in now!
