... or lack thereof, I know, I know. Which leads me to
ask: what about spaces? Spaces between words is a highly
idiosyncratic Terran convention, highly regional too.
Only some weirdo users of some weirdo languages (English, French,
German, Italian, Russian... you know) do it. The Thai don't
do it, the Burmese don't do it, the pundits seeped in Sanskrit
don't do it, once upon a time the ancestors of said weirdoes
didn't do it.... so, do the Klingons do it???
Ah, yes, better sign my name: I noticed the listserver doesn't
seem to put it anywhere.
