This echo is so quiet now I guess everyone is mad at me for that WL and 
spellin thing.  I've been reduced to discussing the relative size of 
math text as it compares to the text of Japanese math texts.  If 
everyone will just come back and post more I promise I will give my 
kindergartners a spelling test next week and do 30 minutes of drill and 
skill every day for a week.
Happy Thanksgiving.
