I have not gone anywhere. I'm still waiting for you to come up with some "th" words, or proof for your numerous unfounded claims. See it is not logical for me to continue to post until you actually make some sort of fact base argument.
I doubt you will because you are simply to dense to realize what is going on. You keep bringing up things that always happen to you when arguing about your crappy new spelling. Anyone with a bit of self insight would be able to figure that the problem was them and not everyone else.
I was going to post your failure a few other places, but stopped. I don't even want to drive people to your site to mock you. It will make no difference. In your mind you will always be right. So I rather your site simply fades back into internet obscurity.
So unless you can come up with something to back up what you seem so certain of, have fun in failure. I'm sure at some point your charts can be used as place mats for some homeless shelter.

You missed it. Sweatheart and courthouse. Probably several more in the pile.
I like theze 2 examples. They hav more examplz uv inconsistency. ea makes 2 completely different soundz and ou makes a single sound in the 1st haf and 2 in the 2nd.
If you keep going, youre eventually going to hav to giv up on the claim that therez any real lojik to English spelling. Hopefully before weve gon thru the entire dictionary looking at examplez.

You do realize that simple breaking up the compound words eliminates that problem much easier, and more logically than changing "th" to "X". Doing that also eliminates the problem of remembering with words are compounded and which are not.
You might want to actually check your spelling before you make claims. You misspelled "sweetheart".
Oh, and nothing says that the language has to be logical. If doesn't. You like to reference pop culture so; if you remember numerous episodes of Star Trek you should remember it is often not the cold hard logic that wins the day.

Sweet. OK Score 1 for M52. Got me there. I goofed up.
But you do realize there are a bunch uv wordz that do hav 'ea az the E sound, rite?
You are propozing a change yourself now. No compound wordz. Or are you only propozing a rule that wordz that start with H cant be the 2nd haf uv a compound in wordz that end in c, p, s, or t ?
A rule to solv 1 problem created by missing letterz in the alfabet insted uv just fixing the missing letter problem.
I will hav to pay particular attention wenevr you uze the word 'logically'.

All compound words, why not? It would eliminate some very common errors and stop people from having to remember which words are compounded and which are not.
Than the long e spellings which use "ea" can use "ee" instead.

Hello,
I will be bowing out of this, as I can not seem to convince you that language is evolutionary and not revolutionary.
There is really no point to the argument anyway, since there is only one measure to any implementation.
If people like it and find it useful, it will thrive.
If they don't, it will die.
And nothing we say to discourage you, nor any argument you summon to prove the benefits of your system will matter in the end.
For the record, I don't like it and don't find it useful. But carry on if it pleases you and you don't mind inflicting pain on your readers.

No, I'm not in favor of wholesale spelling reform. Reform and change will take place, just over time.
Thing is if there was going to be overall reform it would not resemble your system. The reform would have to be simple and let allow those who are taught it from birth to be able to read older text.

Backward compatability/acceptability. Thats the mistaken notion uv 99% uv all reformerz; their starting point.
They decide that the only way a new system will be accepted iz if it looks az close to traditional spelling az possible.
Inescapable conclusion #1 from there iz that new letterz are a non-starter.
So they spend a month studying the dictionary to determin what their digrafs and rules are, then start riting a common lexicon list in their new spelling.
They reazon that the introduction uv their revolutionary new spelling shoud be implimented gradually, piece by piece, over 10 to 20 yirz, guided by the educational administrationz in all the english speaking countryz, the dictionary publisherz and publisherz in general.
Sometime within the next few yirz they get on the web and find the Saundspel Group, American Literacy Council, the Simplified Spelling Society and a scattering uv individual websites and discover that their 'new' system iz close, sumtimez nearly identical, to a dozen that go back az far az the 1700z. A dozen they can find, but soon realize there must be hundredz, maybe thouzandz that were created in much the same way theirz wuz over the centuryz.
So the question iz wut went rong? Why coudnt even the well funded group efforts get any traction?

For the same reason yours can't. It is a fix to a problem that simply does not exist. Spelling reform does not get traction because while English spelling difficult to master it does not need fixing.
