Sounds like it could be fun, but the specifics and the logistics for the hunt would have to be carefully planned. The idea I gave to Sai was two simultaneous 4-hour"workshops", one for newbies interested in a Linguistics 101 crash course, while the veterans do a workshop collectively engaged in a crash design for an "instant" conlang that could be presented to the other attendees. By the way, I visited Richard Brodie's CPG website and studied it. I agree it's quite a fun writing system he's come up with. -- John Q.
