Ah! Khakhakhashootshootshoot! Notice that 21 = k and 22 also = k? 22 should be = x. (This also explains 21+22=kx)

I thought about that for a long time. Currently, they are isolated in space. For hand-writing, I will have to revise that, but that's not done yet. BTW, the dots and strokes sometimes resemble people in *very* strange situations. When I had a first version of this script, this was even more the case. People in the glyphs were usually having sex in all impossible acrobatic positions. :-))) (It least when I showed them to women who seemed to see pictures in my innocent little glyphs everywhere.) (Un)fortunately, the current script is a little better. Maybe I revise it again: it was a lot of fun. :-) Yes, yes, graphics follow soon! :-) **Henrik
