Joe:

K-Bonics is a more than subtle distortion of that spoken eloquence
generally associated with those reared in the south central US, Dave
Ulmer-like dialect, for example.
This linguistic form of communication, while somewhat difficult to
speak, is even more difficult to write and takes many years, even centuries
to master. After all, most K-Bonic words are in no dictionaries!!!
To best sum up a description would be that it is, when properly spoken,
akin to Gregorian Chant backdropped by soft banjo!!
As info, there was a great display of it in a recent movie, entitled 'O
Brother, Where Art Thou.

Ed, So. Indiana, heaven, still learning the harmonics of K-Bonics
