I've forgotten what Schleyer is known for -- please explain.

That makes me feel better for being slow at naming. MNCL is still not named
(originally stood for My Newest Con. Lang., no longer accurate). 'Yemls
comes from a rendering of "nameless" ["Jei.mU.lIs]. Incidentally, "BrSc"
[bOl`"sOt_S] looks like the future perfective form of some unknown verb in
'Yemls. (Hmm, I wonder what BrS could mean ...?)
