Hi, Thomas... I update all my stuff, regularly or irregularly. Lately I've been working on the lexicons. There are still a number of words I invented for the grammars years back that I still haven't gotten in the lexicons.

Yeah, it was a ton of work. And weirdly tyrannical and compulsive (but that I am). I'm supposed to stop now and do other things, but I go to bed with words in my head. Nihhterla. Entom. It's magnetic, I need to resist. I need to garden. I need to finish up some articles. I need to get OUTSIDE.
