You've just lost a chance to convert a poor soul to the conlanging-ism. :-) (James, this is not a criticism, just a comment.) I once wrote to a comicbook publisher complaining about a filthy translation they'd made, in what could've been had as a hate mail. They replied with a "thank you for your criticism" message. Did that surprise me and made me wish to apologise for the words I'd told? You bet so. This is a poor comparison, I know. The point is: most hate mailers are just narrow minded people who have never been given the chance to think different, to place themselves in another person's situation. Have mercy on that guy, he's just possessed by the Monolanger Devil. ;-) []'s -- ------- Gustavo Eulalio ---------- guga@cgnet.com.br ------- ---- "Antes, eu n=e3o era perfeito.
