I can learn Lojban without attending a class, moving to another country, or even hearing it spoken! If high-schoolers these days (in the US, let's say) had the choice to take Spanish, French, or Lojban as a foreign language, each provided with good teachers and proven learning methods, which one would be the easiest to learn? I couldn't see schools offering higher than Lojban 2, whereas you could study French for eight years and still suck at it. (I stopped after three, and yes, I suck at it.) mu'omi'e.uirik.
