Good grief, you kids-- every now and then this question pops up, and I have to assert Senior Old Fart status at 67. (Medicare be praised; something like it should be available to all. Harumph.) On the other hand, I'm 50 in Cindu years, if I've done the math right..... Kash was born in 1976 but didn't really develop until 1998 or so. A very early conlang, dating from schooldays, survives only in a couple embarassing fragments.
