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

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 ...?) Jeff J.
