DD does it mean I am dyslexic if I can or cant read this... :P :?Love
Barbara0 -
No, Barbara, not at all but it is reminiscent of the struggles dyslexics can face.

And with Händel we enter a new phase in our collective approach to the funny farm. The germanic languages and their ingenious invention of little dots above three vowels. Ä, ö and ü, aka: "ae", "oe" and "ue". Sheer madness!0 -
