I know like 4 characterizes, but if I knew more, I think it would provide a neat option for those who wanted to "not lose" their writing abilities.<br /><br />I have no clue - I just picked a random image. Now I want to go back and pick one that somehow aligns with the post. Let's see what I can find. :)Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01613335439008713150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469264630957046565.post-57120884612062515942010-09-02T09:56:42.231-07:002010-09-02T09:56:42.231-07:00Scott, what does the big character mean?Scott, what does the big character mean?Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04576218056344224419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469264630957046565.post-12351434770797687402010-08-30T20:41:30.937-07:002010-08-30T20:41:30.937-07:00I think that characters will fall out of common us...I think that characters will fall out of common usage, much like cursive has in the United States. Characters will be held in the same regard as ancient Greek and Latin and Egyptian hieroglyphics. Their downfall will come from the fact that they cannot be easily digitized, and by digitized I am referring more to the ability to be broken down incrementally (as opposed to analog) than the ability to be translated into bits (1's and 0's).Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04576218056344224419noreply@blogger.com
