VMs: Question from a newbie

["Kevin Gillette" <kevingi@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, everybody!  I'm quite new to this forum, and am enjoying the discussions
immensely.

Please forgive what must be an ancient question, but I haven't availed
myself of any archived messages (if indeed, such an archive exists - ???) to
see if it has been answered already.  The question is this:  Has any thought
been given to the prospect that the 'codons' or glyphs represent a syllabary
rather than an alphabet?  This could explain the terseness of many of the
'words.'  I apologize in advance if this question has been thoroughly vetted
already.

Thanks!

Kevin Gillette
