What? "lang" vs. "lingo"?!!! Are you mad are do you do that on purpose? How can a four-letter word ask more key strokes than a five-letter one? And

Very unsuccessful. Your cryptic e-mails mostly take up bandwidth but don't seem to give any meaning, and when they do they are obviously wrong. We have a 100- mail limit on this list and we cannot afford this kind of behaviour. So if you want to carry on posting to the list, at least use an understandable language and check your facts before. If it means more keystrokes for you, too bad for you. But we won't accept being the victims of your laziness. Christophe. http://rainbow.conlang.free.fr Take your life as a movie: do not let anybody else play the leading role.
