&gt; &gt; all very well put jesper<br/>
&gt;Yes indeed.<br/>

&gt; &gt; there is more to it<br/>
&gt; &gt; which we have been experimenting with<br/>
&gt; &gt; & i will explain all that if anyone is really interested<br/>

&gt;And some summary of this should end up in the file area at some time,<br/>

 </span></blockquote>well as usual this will be much too condensed<br/>
& i dont really know where to start<br/>
<br/>
ah but let me insert<br/>
<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://groundhog.gohdnu.org">http://groundhog.gohdnu.org</a><br/>
before i forget<br/>
for any further palindromic groundhog millennium festivities<br/>
as well as for a subsequent topic<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
now about what people are calling digraphs<br/>
i think peter herings use of alternating upper & lower case for the diglyphs <br/>
comprising all the tricountry point hexaglyphs is the kings english or <br/>
danish or austrian or whatever he talks<br/>
for distinguishing those very distinguished points<br/>
especially since he is the king of the world class anyway<br/>
so i feel this style must be honored for both of these excellent reasons<br/>
<br/>
yes his is a bumpy ride<br/>
but i would take it myself if i still had any caps left<br/>
<br/>
also i should probably explain up front that all these diglyphs hexaglyphs <br/>
etc on all levels are specifically so called rather than di graphs or hexa <br/>
grams or something else<br/>
normally only when their hieratic or divinatory aspect is being addressed<br/>
<br/>
for it often seems that each group of glyphs is actually trying to utter or <br/>
otherwise reveal something distinctive about its point<br/>
  but gohd that is an excursion for later on<br/>
<br/>
for now<br/>
descending from the world class i think lower case naturally rules <br/>
everywhere else for its ease & convenience & quietude<br/>
<br/>
but in addition to the normal diglyphs the cardinal & semicardinal <br/>
directions have long been recognizable here at the end of our normal <br/>
hexaglyphs<br/>
as 7th &or 8th characters normally<br/>
& we have even recently scrambled the semicards for special cases<br/>
but only when necessary<br/>
& only if the correct readings are practically forced<br/>
<br/>
we also have been adding h & l for hi & low points<br/>
similarly c for centerpoints<br/>
& in special cases such as the triple tripoint kymotn<br/>
inventions such as<br/>
kymotnu with u as in upper<br/>
kymotnm with m as in middle &<br/>
kymotnl with l as in lower<br/>
almost present themselves<br/>
tho it is always worth thinking about setting best possible precedent<br/>
whenever precedent is necessary<br/>
<br/>
otherwise alphabetical order of course rocks<br/>
tho i could imagine varying from it for emphasis or art<br/>
as for example at usorca<br/>
<br/>
for identifying points beneath the level of the world class<br/>
whenever it is necessary to avoid all possible confusion<br/>
the applicable universes & their levels again seem to present themselves<br/>
thus us2ctmany helps to identify ctmany as in the secondary level of the usa <br/>
in case someone draws a blank on what the heck it might be<br/>
or usfl3glhemaokpa helps to identify & place this quintitertiary point<br/>
in the florida subset of the usa subset<br/>
<br/>
it gets to be even more fun when you have to invent the diglyphs impromptu & <br/>
from scratch<br/>
normally for tertiary entities or beyond<br/>
& there are many worms nests & cans of hornets lurking here<br/>
<br/>
but the strange part is that to me at least all the above seems intuitive & <br/>
antisystematic really<br/>
while i admit all these prefixes & number usages are hideously technical & <br/>
pedantic if you are already in the know about the point being identified<br/>
so they are probably best used sparingly & with a twinkle<br/>
<br/>
again all these formats & styles have evolved only out of simple <br/>
straightforward necessity & arent really any one persons idea<br/>
<br/>
jack was using most of them in his books<br/>
yes lets be clear it isnt just jacks book but jacks trilogy<br/>
& david too was on the web with them before they appeared on a website that <br/>
was made for me in 1997 & now expanded by the above link<br/>
<br/>
only afterwards did brian & i develop them further<br/>
& only after that did bill even find us & create bp around the multipointing <br/>
idea<br/>
all owing to a gaffe we never made at the int boundaries list<br/>
<br/>
ah but this isnt the half of it yet & my time is up again<br/>
& ten bucks well spent<br/>
<br/>
so cheerio for now<br/>
& dont know when we will continue<br/>
but please feel free to do so<br/>
