just printed out a chart of cursive letters to give to my great
grandkids. If the school will not teach them, lessons will be taught
here. I can just see them handing in an assignment to a teacher who says,

Always liked the rather artistic cursive from past generations - several past
generations. KOOL - that someone would take the time for such elaborate
handwriting, but wish it was easier to read. <BR>>>>>
