Speaking of languages... Or, were we speaking of them?

Does anyone recall an Olive font? This was really nerdy, and started
in the early 80s. Basically, the alphabet letters were replaced with
Olive symbols. I was working on it, and doing a mediocre job. Then
Ari took it and ran with really beautiful letters. The font was never
used, except in Keith's bedroom on the computer.
