Probably my foult, after it originated on a posting on Hangkerim (my conculture). But I have become aware of the differences of topics. World-building seams to provide me (and any other conculturer) on the technical stuff of making our conworlds more feasibel or credible... but not for discussing the culture itself. I'm also subscribed to conculture and I hope to post there some of the interesting details of the Hangkerim culture: philosophy of life, religion, dairy life and all those thinks that are not exactly conlang related. -- Carlos
