Re: VMs: Re: VMs-like astrological shorthand marginalia...?



Hi Dana,
 
Thanks for this, looks quite relevant and exciting moreover; I think I managed to find out the valid source of it:
 
http://www.gerardpas.com/library/bohnen.html
 
However, I have a technical difficulty with this picture: my zoom is to poor to allow me to have a distinct view of the caracheters. Anyone, any help?
 
Thanks
 
Jean
