My screen uses Times, and this does show it as an "I" (eye)

Observes milum: J have windows 98 and jt looks like a J.

Best laugh of the day, Mr. M.

I think it's an "L" because that's the best definition minus the Fertile Crescent part. AnnaS would appreciate that kind of definition.

I think it's an I because it looks like an I on my screen. And also, I voted for I.

"I." (Does the period go inside the quotation marks when it's just one letter?

It goes outside; "I" is not a sentence, and the period in question is ending the entire sentence. I would only put a period inside a quote if the entire sentence is in quotes. Feel free to correct me :-).

>we have a few new players this time; the entrants inclue: WO'N, dodyskin, slithy toves, Jazzo, Wordwind, milum, tsuwm, OED2, consuelo, Fishona, Verlangen, etaoin, Rhubarb & Geoff

I'm reminded of the story of the fellow who walks into a drugstore and says to the woman behind the ocunter, "Miss, can I have a dozen condoms?"

The woman snarls at him, "Don't you "Miss" me!"

He thought for a second. "OK, make it thirteen."

Anyway. In the end I am voting for N.

Methinks, dear milum, you are becoming a bit J-ded with all this! BOW-WOW!

That is, of course, unless J is the best that Science Fiction has to offer!

MISTRIAL! MISTRIAL! Whitman and his cute dog milo, made fun of my entry in direct violation of...

ALL BETS ARE OFF THIS GAME IS CLOSED. The Hogmaster is further instructed to destroy all definitions pertinent to the corrupted game by burning them to ashes in a metal stove and to send a formal note of apology to the person whose definition was defamed.
