Well, a friend of mine's little sister has a Furby, and a book that includes a dictionary of Furbish. I considered copying it down and sending it to the list but i didn't have time before i had to go home. I don't specifically remember seeing anything obviously Hebrew, although i could just not remember much of it at all. I do remember seeing a few very English words. -Stephen (Steg) "Levels there are- / Known only to sperm whales / Physeter, who hunts / In chasms of dreaming / To battle the squid / Whose beaks are sea-mounts / And whose great arms / Encompass oceans...." -from _startide rising_ by david brin ___________________________________________________________________ Get the Internet just the way you want it.
