Re: Omnilingual

I read that one a long time ago.  It was a fun concept and an
enjoyable read.  Not sure it would really work out so neatly, but
hey, it's fiction.

I just read the other stury which was recently mentioned, namely, A
Rose for Ecclesiastes.  I found it well written and the concept quite
original.

Anybody else harboring some shortstory gems??
