I am looking for someone to point me in the right direction. Question: what is the best site on Internet to find lojban material? (My initial Archie search turned up some stuff, but most of it quite old.) Question: is there anybody in the U.K. who can supply Open Learning materials, or is it best to contact The Logical Language Group in the U.S.A.? I am particularly interested in audio tapes - for pronunciation. Background: I first learned of Loglan through Dr. Dobb's (computing) Journal many years ago and through it found J.C.B's Sci. Am. 1960 article. My interest in lojban is mostly personal curiosity/fun, but I also teach a bit of A.I. Possible links with the programming language Forth also intrigue me. I am an engineer, not a linguist and foreign languages other than the merest hint of French and German have alluded me. I have many questions, but that's enough for now. Any help gratefully received.
