Eeek! I am in no way any sort of professor (one day maybe <evil smirk>).
I've also been lurking for a while- it's not that you're not interesting,
guys, rather that I just don't have anything to say. As for the dozen
languages, Fluently I only speak English and French (both L1, but my
English is better having lived in England longer) an competently Italian. I
just know smatterings of other languages.

For some reason I think doubled vowels in English look ugly, but nice in
Dutch. I also love the sequence <ij>.
