Again comparing with Esperanto, I have gotten the impression from Esperantists other than Jorge that the kind of deates that we are having on Lojban List are exactly the kinds of things they disdain within the ESperanto community as well. There seem to be a lot of Esperantists who look down on us for always talking ABOUT The language rather than in it. Maybe if discussions of how to say it only took place in Lojban, we could have a counterargument %^) (And since John and I don't read the Lojbvan text that is posted, we wouldn't be distracted by it!) Exempted of course would be beginner questions. lojbab
