I can distinguish the word for male and female in several dozens of
languages and at least half a dozen different scripts and could easily
add to that list, should the necessity ever arise. But I have often
stood musing in front of lavatory doors trying to make out those
incompehensible pictures and more than once have I made the wrong choice
afer all.
The invention of writing was the one single greatest cultural
achievement ever -- and we are giving it up.
