Subject: 'critical' question
In light of recent discussions I feel my query is quite
insignificant, nevertheless, here goes: does anyone know
why is it that when we write we cross our t's, but when it
is typed the letter has an additional 'chupchik' at the bottom?
What's the difference, the origin? Is there a specific
(perhaps unwritten) rule about it?
And, I'll tell you why I am asking: some, i believe, misguided,
students complained about my writing 'a cross', and I need
some good comeback, other than-mind oyur own buisness
and/or live and let live.
Thanks a million, Adi
