:D   Speaking of exclaves, there's one in Kentucky too!!   Somewhat intriguingly, they divided the states in a very strange way at New Madrid, that place in the middle of the continent where the contintental plate is also divided strangely so that they have big earthquakes     :o

A bayou in sight of Kentucky... strange things indeed!     :o :o

Ñow that is what I call ingenuity. ::)

I have noticed that Kentucky enclave, I would like to visit there sometime. I had ancestors who lived near there briefly long long ago, in Obion County, Tennessee.

So many places I want to go, what has stopped me in the past from just getting in the car and driving? (Sure sign of a mid life crisis).

So Wayne, what to you call that French "C" with the tail on it? Like in Francois?

Wayne:
Hey Shakes ! Hope you don't mind Lynne and me helpin ourselves to some whine at your place !     :laugh:   How you doin?

:-\   Sorry, my dial-up shut off on me!  The tail on the "C" is called a cedilla.  I reckon they wanted to make the c look and sound like an s.

how do you make an "enyay" the "n" with the "tilda" over top of it? Is there a comand that does this or do you have a different key board?

Hey all-- I couldn't get along without a Character Map, and this is not talking about folks who post.

With Windows XP, it should be found at Start > Accessories > System Tools menu. I use it so often I put a shortcut for it on the Start menu. As Wayne said, it must be done on the numeric keypad (a pain on laptops); and in some situations it may not work. Most times, it does for me.

ñ = Alt + 0241

Ç = Alt = 0199
