I can understand [O_o] (extra-rounded open-mid back vowel), but what has it got to do with a "hacking cough"? And what is [>_<]? Some form of implosive? If you meant [>\_>] (ejective epiglottal plosive), then that *is* a good rendition of a "Hacking cough". -- Simon Richard Clarkstone s.r.cl*rkst*n*@durham.ac.uk / s*m*n_cl*rkst*n*@hotmail.com
