Good question. :-) But seriously, I can understand the critics' POV, even if I don't agree with them. I mean, when you get right down to it, we're a pretty odd bunch of people. I mean, making up imaginary worlds and languages? What's it accomplish? Who can appreciate it, only ourselves. With art or gardening, other, non-artists and non-gardeners can appreciate it. Of course, one could say the same thing about those critics. Other than other critics, who really listens to them? :-) But, I think conlanging's a pretty harmless madness, y'know? :-) -- "It's bad manners to talk about ropes in the house of a man whose father was hanged." - Irish proverb http://members.tripod.com/~Nik_Taylor/X-Files http://members.tripod.com/~Nik_Taylor/Books.html ICQ: 18656696 AIM Screen-name: NikTailor
