    I just love it!!!

    During college, I spent a year corresponding with a lover in Elvish. Of course I've always had a love of calligraphy, and elvish is just so friggin pretty. Made for yummy love letters... and the coding and decoding made the letters all the more fun.

    This is almost too much fun... be the first on your block to mail curses and boons to friends and family in a genuine Magik script!!!

    Given the topic at hand I'd say it's a bit st00pid to engage in technical zealotry. But whatever makes you tick.
