    AH!!  no wonder I was gettin' confused when looking up "cyber" and
"systematics" in an English-Dutch dictionary... *damn old used bookstore
dictionaries... grumble-mumble- no *@!% IPA...*
    Neat-0... hmm, I have been wondering how to orthographize the "Greek y"
in creolego... I might just appropriate the Dutch in this particular case. It
makes sense to me.

    Duly noted, highly appreciated _and_ furtherwith added to
*googolgigglabyte* and *googolgiggloctet*...

    OBCONLANG-AND-NATLANG:  while we are at this, anyone else have variations
on this *googolgigglabyte* lingua-mangling theme 0_o?

>PS What do the letters J Y S mean? Or is that an impertinent question?
    Most questions are happily answered - hopefully none are un-important.
    "J. Y. S." = Jonathan Yu-Sam... the name I was certified with when born
in London, England.
    My pen names are:  "Hanuman Zhang" and "czHANg"
    I am considering another:  "Han Djang"
