A Group to promote the world wide acceptance and use to the word ZALOP. ZALOP means ABSOLUTELY NO WAY DEFINITELY NOT NADA NIX. It is essential this word is said in an emphatic tone. Accents do not matter in this regard.
I am very much in need of a word that the English language does not have. I think this is the place to ask for a term that designates those deprived and deluded people that are not Mail Artists, let alone Iuomartists. It should include both the general population and artists who do not practise Mail Art.
Mail Art Martha - I've just been given two new words!! Perhaps one of them will be that - they just TELL you what they mean once you've said them out loud - the one means "NO WAYS am I going with you" and the other - well - I've just got to get through the next two days then I'll hear what it whispers :-)) XX
Hi Mail Art Martha, Yes, Keith Bates made that one for me. I already traced 5 of them on Facebook, so I guess I found the 6th one. Looking foreward to see it.....
But Cheryl will be back one day...let her take a break for now. She has a big book exhibit going on in So. Africa and she has worked hard getting us all together in collaborations. Time for a vacation...ZALOP and Zolop and Zolip will go on :-)
Hello Zalop Group. I would be very grateful if you would participate in this Zalop themed mail art project/group show. Please and thanks. :D

As a non-native English speaker words like 'cap' and 'hat' are difficult to me. This was noticed by the famous neurologist Zalop, who (incorrectly) thought of the diagnosis lectical agnosia. She wrote this book on this subject. Which flatters me though.
I don't know, res. We see the interest in Zalop. People have asked about Trashpo. IUOMA has many new members. Questions about all this debris scattered around the site seem only natural.

I insisted (and still do so) on Lopza... Though I'm afraid Zalop has won...
Anyway, Cheryl made me very happy with this fine Zalop on a beautiful Envelop!
