But it's not. It could only possibly be lay 'It lay.  And it's not 
half as bad as my hand-scrawled "they are transmitting you guys 
useful data."  (I make long straight qaghwI'mey).

I learned pIqaD about a month before I found out it was now 
semi-canon in Monopoly, and would looooove if we could e-mail in 
it.  Does anyone else's pIqaD handwriting make people snicker too 
much if they label the table?

I have to admit to being on the side of "stupid traditional 
orthographies make a language endearing."  I don't even want a 
spelling reform for my own reprehensibly spelled language.
