English is your third language and you write this well? Sure, go ahead, put the American educational system to shame even more than it already is...
Yves,
I think you did a great job of sounding informative, friendly and humorous all at the same time. The English is perfect.
One thing I can suggest is that it would also be good to have them tell us whatever they know about the backgound of the sample that might be useful. Information such as the country and age of the sample, and whether it is from a web site, or from a scan of printed material. (For example, if we know something comes from an advertisement published in the 50's it would rule out a lot of possibilities.)
Where will you have this so that new posters are very aware of it?
Hi Yves,
Thanks for your work on the FAQ. Since you asked, I notice one very very very very small english error (of course, I just made 4).
Under My sample was ID'd in less than 1 minute, how is this possible?
*competitivity of this board* could read *competition on this board*
I don't think competitivity is a word. I could be soooooo wrong though.
This is so nitpicky I debated hard before pressing post.
English is my only real language (shamed American that I am).
Wait, wait. There is Pig Latin and a bit of Anishspay.
Andyray.

Yves, submit it to the pseudodictionary.
