>Dear Fabian,
>This is obviously a BAD BAD BAD idea, bud!
>For one Volapuk is the essence of conlanging

>That Solresol was even in a major SciFi movie
>that made millions upon millions... I still can't
>get the jingle from Close encounters of the 3rd
>kind out of mi mind for hours if I start whistling...

>Also Interlingua de IALA is one of the living

>today... If Europanto has even a place in the shirt
>Goodness !!! Interlingua has a thousand fold
>more right to appear... otherwise what is the

>or the STUPIDITY of making your own language?

>I for one vote for Pride!!! Put the Auxlangs in
>or leave me out of it... I'm very serious on this
>Fabian.... The press has paid attention to
>conlanging through auxlangs for quite a while.
>Even mention of my Ekspreso appeared in a

>conlang... So leave them in. I sincerely hope
>you change your mind on this otherwise it's

>geometrics... a bunch of paint thrown at the painting,
>some call this art, I say it's paint.... to me the lines

>artlangs in place...

>Separate the auxlangs if you will... and intermix them
>but don't ignore them.
