Subject: Re: whut the hale



I could have saved a lot of trouble if I had clarified my original

posting about "whut." I should have asked everyone if they considered

the VOWEL to be eye-dialect, setting aside the h-less issue. But I think

Natalie's right, that keeping much of standard spelling occurs for

aesthetic and practical reasons.
