Doesn't matter. You're part of Our community now. While
we don't mind rambling posters, we love rambling posters
that also tell us about the languages they're creating.
Can the politics, Su; bring on the tongues!

Don't be ridiculous. If you're able to type text, you
can tell us about your language projects. Can the politics,
though.

OK. You've lost about 99.5% of your audience. This is _NOT_
Auxlang. We do not play butthole politics here. If you
want to bemoan your Englishy woes, this is not the forum.
If you want to push some kind of auxlang agenda, this is
not the forum. You want to talk constructed langauges,
you've come to the right place.

Cos the French know how to cook.

I calls it "chaval bas". Tasty,  but not as good as
chien brouille or grilled chat-au-van.

[Garbage snipped - I really don't have time for drivel.]

Please post about your _conlang_, not your tonguist politics.
Either that, or please leave the list!
