No idea what th' heck this thread is about, but rather than post a bunny with a pancake on its head, I'm gonna put it actually on topic! :eek:

The alphabet. as far as the original inhabitants of the Heterocera Atoll are concerned, is known as Di-ingue Baughtian. Here's is the "rosetta stone" of the written languange, as provided by slmaps.com



You'll find additional information about the language and the map it came from at

I thought the bunny was cute. And who doesn't like pancakes?

What do you get if you combine post #15 and post #28?



...Norse code. :D ....
Would that be Chris' alphabet - maybe from back when he was pretending to be a ladies' man?

Close, but it is actually Maori, the language of the indigenous people of Aotearoa(NZ).

The Maori believe they came from an island Hawaiki-Tu which is populary considered to be modern day Hawaii.

Also they have a Demi-god named Maui who slowed down the sun to get more sunshine each day, quite fitting when you consider the island of the same name.
