I (mistakingly :-( replied)
 
.....<snip>
 Elven is closest of all (the sets) but only shares VMS "g" and double
 cc's, but??, the cc's are upside down (and backwards as it where) if
 you rotate the "cc's" 180, then the "g's (most prevalent in Tolkien
 Elven) are upside down "d's with long tails sweeping to the left, not
 VMS like..<snip last message / end snip...>
 
----------------

I meant to say "upside down "b's" - [_not "d's"_] D*rn those ~mirrors~
ha.haa ALSO, UPSIDE down, the Tolkien elven "b's" have their long
tails sweeping to the RIGHT!

sorry about that :-(
Best to you & yours

"Ancient Elven" / per Tolkien, but what do I know :-/ ??  I'm just
FOLDING
