It will depend on finding the willing talent necessary to (1) dump and reprogram (2) translate (3) produce and (4) write [solved]. If you see that happening here (or anywhere), contact us on this board. BTW, I've been playing PQ for the last five hours, just reached Jurayn. At first, I was struck by how primitive PQ is compared to Lennus-II. Now, I'm caught up in it so deeply again, I remember why I was so charmed, and why Draken, Bongo`, and I (and Taskforce, whether he knows it or not, heh-heh...!) wanted to take on this project. Still, the PQ dialogue and naming system literally scream for expansion and re-write.

I can give you the etymology. Enroll is the old-school grammarian spelling, still preferred in my old Webster. However, during the late fifties or early sixties, journalism schools began teaching the truncated version. I am more grammarian oriented, although I do have an extensive background in journalism. Nevertheless, I have more respect for writers than I do journalists (an esoteric attitude). Dang, I could have avoided this whole SNAFU by selecting the word matriculate!

We didn't dog this thing for 10 years, just so we could slack off the last two weeks! (Maybe we have OCD!) Appreciate your help, big-time!
