Well, those statistics are mostly in English, aren't they? :) ===[ WOT ] === CAXAPA spells SAHARA in Russian, and it's pronounced the same (not 'kaksapa'). There is a collection of short stories and poems called "13 3HAKOB" ("13 symbols"), which are written using only 13 Latin letters and numbers which correspond to letters in the Cyrillic alphabet (which, by the way, has 33 letters). Here's a link: http://www.tema.ru/rrr/ruslat/12_znakov.html Every time I read the stuff, I am humbled -- those are good poems, they even rhyme! :) The authors are either geniuses, or cruel masochists, or both. ========== Best regards, Vitaliy -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
