If you used "y o u" to show plural, what about the fact that word
processors would cause the word to be separated and carriaged if at the end
of a line? Something should be invented that would be coherent within
itself, for the sake of word processing. As Dave said, maybe YOU (in caps)
like the NWT would word better. Then, would it be suggested that this be
consistently utilized or only in contexts of necesary clarification?

Regards,
Jason
