The > subject is irrelevant. Well, anyone is welcome to participate and I would have thought that anyone who was concerned about the language would want to, since the subject, {lo}, is one of the most pervasive in the language. If the level of indifference to that is so great, I can't help wonder what kind of future the project has. But, if the person in chanrge thinks that {lo} is irrelevant, I suppose the future is not very promising altogether anyhow. > Note, however, that in my lexicon "crap" is > barely even an insult. > More of a generic identifier with a mild > implication of distaste. Sorry, I took it as stronger.
