[edit] Hail, esteemed collegue!
Do you know who I am? I've been looking for you for 6 months! Check your Zompist account once in a while! :)
My name is Lawrence Rogers. I'm an amateur linguist and language-lover; an undergrad in Anthropology with an Assoc. in Humanities from Michigan Tech. My passion is highly pictoral logo-phonetic and syllabo-phonetic writing systems (such as Mayan glyphs, Egyptian hieroglyphic, "Hittite" hieroglyphic, and Ancient Chinese Oracle Bone Script). I hope to become a Ph.D. professor of the same.
I have also done much work toward the discipherment of Atlantean. Please, check the Yahoo Tech Group you founded in 2001. Don't be shocked, but I've managed to rejuvinate it into sort of a blog for my discipherment notes and pedagogical offerings.
First, can you make me moderator of The Atlantean Language Group? I go every week. I'd delete all the spam and make it a more navigable spot.
Second, send me an e-mail or post on my Talk page: let's discuss these changes to the Wikipedia article and other things. I'm really into linguistics, too, you know. I'm about your age (I'm 20) and I'm from (Southfield,) Michigan too. We really should talk. Are you at Yale? That'd be cool.
Please, please write back. You could really help me and I might be able to help you, too.
Vale (Latin) and Gamok (Atlantean),

Yadlugonik, thanks for making me moderator, Paultop! If you ever want it back, just ask.
Please, do e-mail me. I anxiously await finally meeting you.

I really like what you're doing with the article. Any contribution you make is welcome.
I wrote a 100 + page book on the writing systems. One of the later rough drafts of it is at The Atlantean Language Group, under Files. See, one of the reasons I'm waiting is that my book is meticulously annotated and I want the Wikipedia article to be as well. (The Bibliography to the book, "Atlantean Grammar", is about 15-20 pages long.) I call the three systems Readers Script (from The Illustrated Script. as on LangMaker.Com), Writers Script (the script you, Rebmakash, Leenay, and Deelayra made), The Atlantean Script, and a all-caps Roman script version of this I call Epigraphist Script (after the occupation, not me). Let's talk, really. I have so much to share! Look up the book. There's several sections on the writing systems.
Any contribution you make is gold to me. I'm glad you're involved again. Welcome back. Yustem retagag gawindin nageb!

Okay, it's 10:22 pm here in New York (where I'm at an arch. field school). Let's correspond via e-mail from now on.

Masily, are you there? Where'd you go? Send me an e-mail, please. roger158 at msu.edu (Funny how thing's work out, huh? I'm in East Lansing now. Looks like Milo Thatch's hometown isn't the only one I visited in 2007.)
