Now.. everything sounds good.. I can live with all that.. until I get to this one:

>>Year 4. Peop wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th" with "z"
and "w" with "v".
>>

That'll make English sound like German!.. remember H. Kissinger.. when he talks, he replaces all W's with V's..  as in "ve vill vin the vall in Vietnam...(circa 1971)"

..but on the other hand I did remember from somewhere that English is a germanic language.. hmmm..

...and was't it some Englishman who once said that "fish" should be spell as  "ghot" (gh pronounced f as in "enouGH", o is i as in "wOmen" and t is sh as in posiTion)
..
have a good weekend all you anglophiles.. I'll take mom out for a drive in my vanagon and practice my Chinese before I forget how..
