Sorry to hear so! Thank you anyway for your writings during the short period in which I have been on the list (and before); I've always enjoyed reading them. And I must admit that I stole quite some Indo-European roots you used for Aredos. About the natlang and phonetics thing: you might be right that recently they have perhaps played a too important role, outnumbering the conlang related stuff, and I am at least partly responsible for that. I don't consider that a reason for leaving, though; one is not obliged to read everything that comes into his mailbox, and the deletion key is patient. Hope you'll change your mind later. Best regards, Jan ===== "You know, I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair.
