. Thanks! I guess Neander[T]al will probably end up being my Third Big Conlang Project, after i get some more work done on Jûdajca. Wow, i've gone from being an "only one conlang" person to being one of those prolific "many early sketches" people...hopefully my computer will start working again by the time winter break is over so i can get to work on all this stuff (the schoolwork can wait :-) ). -Stephen (Steg) "survival is insufficient."
