Eeek! I am in no way any sort of professor (one day maybe <evil smirk>). I've also been lurking for a while- it's not that you're not interesting, guys, rather that I just don't have anything to say. As for the dozen languages, Fluently I only speak English and French (both L1, but my English is better having lived in England longer) an competently Italian. I just know smatterings of other languages.

For some reason I think doubled vowels in English look ugly, but nice in Dutch. I also love the sequence <ij>. Dan ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ semo la flamma, semo la casea semo la tuta, semo la cambea We are the spark, we are the flame We are the people, we are the change
