choboQ 'e' vItlho'neS, ghunchu'wI'.  I know I've responded to this 
excellent and interesting posting but I suspect I wanted to check 
something and let it drop into the bottom of my very crowded mailbox. 
Feel free to send me personal e-mail if you waiting for my response 
to your hard work and nothing seems to be happening.  I tend to work 
on e-mail messages fifteen at a time, wandering off to lighter 
reading when my concentration wanes on a complicated one.  Sometimes 
my mailer crashes or I hit the wrong button and I lose something. 

Peter, your posts are my favourite kind to answer, a few careful 
sentences, not so complex that they become gibberish but a few 
typical errors that give me the chance to explain the points of the 
language in context.  ghunchu'wI' did a good job in answering it; 
I'll fish my reply out of the mailbox (not on this machine) when I 
get home and see if there was anything else I wanted to say.
