Amen. It may not be easy, it may take many many versions, but here at conlang we are all blazing the trail of accelerated language evolution. Even the extrema have their purpose and meaning by setting the boundaries of the practical and the possible. One thing only is sure, we do not know the outcome. I prefer to believe it will be beyond our present imaginations. Jerry
