Very gracious of you. The Mr. “Yaw”, to whom Mr. Edwards was “responding”, was George Bernard Shaw, who had suggested some modest reforms to English orthography. I am inordinately fond of modest proposals.
Being Irish, I’m fond of modest proposals, myself.
I know what you mean. At my age, my hands shake so much with palsy, that my handwriting (and printing and drawing) is hard to make out. Very sad for someone whose hobbies included calligraphy and drawing my own Christmas cards.
