Hello Charles!
This is an exciting and large project you are undertaking...Many  
thanks for these efforts...

And keep us informed what happens - I hope the SignWriting Linguistics  
Society becomes a reality!

Anyone want to visit Gallaudet and at the same time, attend a  
SignWriting Linguistics seminar?
