Every so often I run across a pearl. Today's is a searchable poetry archive: http://www.library.utoronto.ca/utel/rp/intro.html

Every so often I run across a pearl. Hi Anna, Strange to see this crop back to the top of the list after so long - but I just read it for the first time and had the following two URLs: http://www.dublinwriters.org/ - A writer's workshop http://www.traditional-poetry.org/ - a site for traditional poetry (duh!) A friend of mine (Patrick Walsh) contributes regularly.

AnnaStrophic Carpal Tunnel Registered: 03/15/00 Posts: 6511 Loc: lower upstate New York	Brick, thanks for your contributions -- and for resurrecting this topic! Ok, here's another one, a fun one: The Dialectizer. It's pretty good. You type in some text, or give it an URL, and it'll reproduce it in any of half a dozen dialects (more to come, they say). http://rinkworks.com/dialect/ Here's my first sentence, rendered in Redneck: “Thanks fo' yer corntribushuns -- an' fo' resurreckin' this hyar topic! Fry mah hide!” (I kinda got a giggle out of that gratuitious “Fry mah hide”)
