New Type-Design... for Celebration of Greek Alphabet's 2400th Bitrhday!

Hi here, Mr. Hoffman, and Ms. Marine and Club Members-this example
shows then a typical way in which the other-half; or "GREEK" solution
could be utilised, as seen at

http://www.slip.net/~navyblue

But if we wanted to just do "Op-Art" perhaps the easiest fast look
at an example of "fun" ...'solutions', can be seen at

http://www.slip.net/~o614275

Which is the "DIGITALIZATION" of the "GIANTS!" baseball logo. A very
"Y2K READY" design?

Unbelievable as it may sound, many of the varied works I design are
made to go together as part of a larger "picture"...and one of those
"pictures" can be found at

http://www.cam.org/home/Wcoprod/mmpro.htm

first page; 2nd Item, "CALIFORNIA STAR"

and that is the 'formatting' of information 'by design' for the
eventual 'convergence' of the technocratic jumble of networking which
soon will require some semblance of organization.

Best method for creating stanards? At the state school-text level!

So this is a design for "DIGITAL HIGH SCHOOLS" (AB 64 Mazzoni)

Dear Marketing Manager,
I am looking for a way in which to use this GREEK alphabet
designwork of mine, pictured at the URL;
http://www.slip.net/~navyblue
The graphic on the right side of the screen is a letter-substitution
design. Very Simple. There are besides the obvious inferred visual
'likenesses' seen in all alphabets with the 'I/1' and the 'O/0'... letters
&
numerals, respectively; but that leaves EIGHT (8) NON-ROMAN
figures which are the Greek letters "Delta",, etc. Hey! after the 'ONE' and
the 'ZERO'...there are EIGHT (8)...'Arabic Numerals'! So
we can use them in place of the Greek Letters...only other business
being to turn 'L' ("GAMMA") and 'V' ("LAMBDA") 'Upside Down'...that is
'Right Side Up'for the letter-to-letter transliteration device shown
here under the title of "STAR." The scheme makes allowance only for the
Capital Letters & Numerals; much older in form than the 'Cursive.'
There are many reasons why this may be a useful device, but the idea
for now is "Just for fun!" A quick keyboard notation. (And there are
other-such in the world, for Music Reference Library purposes; and as
pointed out, simple transliteration upon a Roman keyboard, say for the
rendering of Ancient Greek Coin Inscriptions, ..."in English!" But how this
("STAR") differs is in that is using corresponding likeness of shape of
letter to numeral, and has alloted each to the other, sorting methodically
by shapeforms, hoping to create a new way
in which to both advertise to Greek-Speakers, and help the novice who
may wish to learn Greek.
And as the Roman Alphabet is a direct descendant of the Greek; this
makes a graffiti for celebrating the Ancient Civilizations of Europe!
"Everything Changes..." this seems a way in which to make all things
"NEW", by the simple avoidance of taking away anything old!
Please let me know if there is anyway I may be of service to the
Greek community, and I would very much like to submit draft proposals
implimenting such, for your inspection-when the occasion should arise.
P.S. (This might be said to be the way in which to create browser-ads
in the GREEK language...but can be created from the Roman keyboard!)
Thank you,
Casey Farrell

A GHETTO! One question? WHAT DO YOU THINK 'they' WERE TALKING
ABOUT WHEN 'they' MENTIONED..."VOODOO-(read 'Doo-Doo)ECONOMICS?"
That's right, just like in '1984; they laid the truth on you but you
wouldn't listen! YOU ARE GETTING THE INFERIOR 'STUFF!"
I'd like to see a 'modern' Internet. How about you? But with 'info'
it cannot be..."BY DEFINITION"...all 'Nuts & Bolts' (MECHANICAL!)
At some point...ENGLISH SPELLING will have to be 'reformed!' Right?
Write? Rite? Wright? Huh? ( as well, many languages still have
NO writing system...or MANY! So they 'ain't ready for 'PrimeTime!')
Phony Hindu accent on TV ad ..."Are you RRRReady?"("for Internet?")
"Sheesh!", "Come off of it!", " Next!" ( Let's cut the 'baloney'!)
But if we wanted to just do "Op-Art" perhaps the easiest fast look
at an example of "fun" ...'solutions', can be seen at
http://www.slip.net/~o614275
Which is the "DIGITALIZATION" of the "GIANTS!" baseball logo. A very
"Y2K READY" design?
Unbelievable as it may sound, many of the varied works I design are
made to go together as part of a larger "picture"...and one of those
"pictures" can be found at
http://www.cam.org/home/Wcoprod/mmpro.htm
first page; 2nd Item, "CALIFORNIA STAR"
and that is the 'formatting' of information 'by design' for the
eventual 'convergence' of the technocratic jumble of networking which
soon will require some semblance of organization.
Best method for creating stanards? At the state school-text level!
So this is a design for "DIGITAL HIGH SCHOOLS" (AB 64 Mazzoni)

Dear Marketing Manager,
I am looking for a way in which to use this GREEK alphabet
designwork of mine, pictured at the URL;
http://www.slip.net/~navyblue
The graphic on the right side of the screen is a letter-substitution
design. Very Simple. There are besides the obvious inferred visual
'likenesses' seen in all alphabets with the 'I/1' and the 'O/0'... letters
&
numerals, respectively; but that leaves EIGHT (8) NON-ROMAN
figures which are the Greek letters "Delta",, etc. Hey! after the 'ONE' and
the 'ZERO'...there are EIGHT (8)...'Arabic Numerals'! So
we can use them in place of the Greek Letters...only other business
being to turn 'L' ("GAMMA") and 'V' ("LAMBDA") 'Upside Down'...that is
'Right Side Up'for the letter-to-letter transliteration device shown
here under the title of "STAR." The scheme makes allowance only for the
Capital Letters & Numerals; much older in form than the 'Cursive.'
There are many reasons why this may be a useful device, but the idea
for now is "Just for fun!" A quick keyboard notation. (And there are
other-such in the world, for Music Reference Library purposes; and as
pointed out, simple transliteration upon a Roman keyboard, say for the
rendering of Ancient Greek Coin Inscriptions, ..."in English!" But how this
("STAR") differs is in that is using corresponding likeness of shape of
letter to numeral, and has alloted each to the other, sorting methodically
by shapeforms, hoping to create a new way
in which to both advertise to Greek-Speakers, and help the novice who
may wish to learn Greek.
And as the Roman Alphabet is a direct descendant of the Greek; this
makes a graffiti for celebrating the Ancient Civilizations of Europe!
"Everything Changes..." this seems a way in which to make all things
"NEW", by the simple avoidance of taking away anything old!
Please let me know if there is anyway I may be of service to the
Greek community, and I would very much like to submit draft proposals
implimenting such, for your inspection-when the occasion should arise.
P.S. (This might be said to be the way in which to create browser-ads
in the GREEK language...but can be created from the Roman keyboard!)
Thank you,
Casey Farrell

For the heck of it, I reported this spam to the postmaster at Hotmail.
Don't know about y'all, but I've received about half a dozen copies of it.
I've gotten 5 so far. I read through the first one quite carefully, trying to
figure out if there was any conceivable relevance to WEIRD buried in there
somewhere. I even wrote to Chris yesterday to ask if there was a sequitur I
somehow missed.

You'd think if this clown wanted to spam someone, he'd follow standard procedure
and spam the entire IETF....
