Liland, I agree HTML needs some new characters for written languages. For both Hawaiian and Japanese transposed to English, a long bar atop some vowels is customary to indicate stress. I can do it in Word but there are no such characters in html. I guess the alternate is cut and paste, but to a total computer nincompoop like myself, it will mean sitting down to some hard study.
The chefs here (inland Canada) do pretty well with the fish that are shipped in, but there is nothing like coastal fish market fresh here. A visit to the coast is a real treat.
