I'm very glad to have read that. I have never segregated my interest in APL from my other interests in graphical semantics and language in general, with extra attention to strange, obscure, religious, or occult symbolism. I've put varying degrees of study to Ancient Egyptian, Greek, Hebrew, and Chinese as well as various languages that rely on more Latin character sets. I put a fair amount of attention toward Tsolyáni, a fantasy language of considerable substance. I also studied symbolism of Freemansons, Gnostics, and other marginal groups, as well as the symbolism of major religions.
Mathematics and music count as two additional, related areas. I suspect most who appreciate J or APL are also fascinated by other systems of graphic expression where meaning tends to rely more on ideographic combination and less on phonetic anchoring. -- Tracy ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
