How the Wynnch Stole Our Hearts
The Wynnch left quite suddenly, surprising the lot of us.
Now please don’t ask why. It should be quite obvious.
It could be that his head wasn’t screwed on quite right.
It could be perhaps that his friends were a fright.
But I think that the most likely reason he did
May have been that his heart was ten sizes too big.
Wynn AND Dr. Seuss are no doubt rolling their ethereal eyes at this
travesty of verse. My apologies. But the basic idea's there, especially
that his head wasn't screwed on quite right. I can only hope to have as
great a capacity to love all creatures as he had. His love and life
showed me, among other things, how much my heart still needs to grow: At
least three sizes.

Renee he hung around with, but the one with the PROPER French
diacritical mark that I am totally unable to reproduce on my
e-mailer)

Hey Renee (with accent). Wynn would have loved your poem. You have just outlined the *advantage* of having parents unaware of the accent "option": I don't have to learn a new computer skill!

You can do it on Windows too!

alt-130
è
alt-138 etc. Experiment in that range (130-140) and you will find most of them.
