I’m glad you retain the traditional approach: We need more of it.

Thanks, It's often a lonely line to hold but I'm growing into the role of kindly mossback. (It's with a bit of a shock that I recently noticed that on my technical committees I'm often the oldest one there; and I have no plans for retirement soon.)

English spelling is anything but logical but I'm holding to what I've learned, at least until we get new rules. By comparison Gaelic looks complex but is extremely phonetic; learn a few simple rules and you have it. I'd like to see that, but can't get past the mainland vs Taiwan Chinese difference: the communists "simplified" the characters,and it's not clear to me how much either side can read the other's writing anymore.

There is a LOT to be said for tradition, but few are saying it.

Help Texas watch her borders.
Watch live on 14 cameras and report illegal alien invaders.
Night cams in operation

Does it work? Yes.
Best time to catch them is at night.
Recently caught on cam and reported:
String of illegals running through brush with backpacks
Numerous sightings of boats crossing the river
Numerous vehicles late at night in isolated areas
IMMENSELY satisfying
