To be honest, I'm not mad about both possibities. I think I will vote for a third option (and since it was originally my idea :)), I don't mind at all to throw it in): The title should be in a conlang... I could even imagine a construction, in which every issue has a different title, or rather, the same title in another language (for example the language of its major contributor). The subtitle then could remain: "International Journal of Language Creation" (or just: "Conlang Bulletin") Jan ===== "You know, I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought, wouldn't it be much worse if life were fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them? So, now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe." --- J. Michael Straczynski __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
