No need to introduce yourself, we already exchanged words on AUXLANG :) Have
you actually "left" AUXLANG yet, in the fashion I did? (some of the
auxlangers seem annoyed and are making negative replies to my good-bye
post...I'm unsubscribing so I won't have to read it).
While I was at AUXLANG, I enjoyed your (somewhat more educative than the
rest) posts on Semitic languages. I hoped then to exchange more information
with you in order to get some ideas on Semitic elements in the IAL.
