Vowel Movements

Steve Robinson objects:
"
Hold on here.  At the risk of sounding like a Buchanonan protectionist
. . . I recently read of a State Department initiative to send vowels to
Bosnia, to help those poor folks out with some of those unpronouncable
place names they've got over there.  If the above mangling of God's own
English is what we've got to look forward to, Derrida notwithstanding,
I'd say keep them vowels home."


Is it redundant to point out that the original Hebrew Bible was written this
way--without vowels or spaces?

I'll leave that to the deconstructionists to work over.
