Yes, you send me the Kerno one. An impressive thing, I must admit.
Last September there even was a small thread about it. It resulted in lots of
interesting info about Talarian and other languages, but as far as I recall,
not in numbers.
I'm still interested, BTW.

Yes, indeed. And I guess there must be little rivalry between collectors of
this type. In fact, you could easily say that all collectors together are
building up one huge collection.
Which reminds me: I have always had the thought of sending my whole collection
to Mark Rosenfelder. I really should make some order.
