Is it writing, morse code, or a tap dance lesson?

I'd imagine writing in cursive with one's foot would be somewhat difficult.

Well, Atsali's a siren, and so her words are inextricably linked to the powers of her siren song even when she isn't actually using her siren powers. And these roaming legs have a special affinity with the metrical feet in Atsali's song.

You forgot to pay the pun vault for that one, Catawampus.

I haven't a clue what you are implying.

But even though it may be something of a knee-jerk reaction, I suppose I ought to toe the line and trot out some donation that isn't too shoddy (assuming that I can foot the bill). I wouldn't want to look like a total heel, after all.

I shall contribute a few sandals made from the skins of fish from the family Soleidae. And some anti-fungal powder, to boot.

I simply cannot believe that it's been over 20 hours since Paul posted "Wait A Minute", and nobody here in the forum has made any reference at all to footnotes. :roll:

C'mon, folks... you don't have to leave all the easy ones for me! :mrgreen:

Morse Code of course... I've actually seen J37 and J51 keys...the J37 is a regular desk model and the J51 is a striped down model that's used with the SE-11 Signal Equipment (all WWII stuff that my friend has)

The J-37 family of Telegraph keys: http://k6ix.net/J-37/Pics/AllJ37-D.jpg

The J-51 Key: http://artifaxbooks.com/915cre1a.JPG

It has a 16 foot cord that is attached to the binding posts on the key then attached to the binding posts of the M227 Signal lamp that allows remote signaling from 16 feet from the lamp (handy when snipers are around) See this photo: http://w1tp.com/8540b.jpg
