No one took me up on it, I recall, and the the resulting language, "Yoooosh!" included, ended sounding rather like Yiddish (or Indian in the Blazing Saddle tradition). Oddly, that is one of the languages people say that Lojban sounds like, along with Albanian and nameless neareastern (though my favorite is "Italian with a Russian accent" which brings us back to Albanian, I suppose). Any how, y'all have had your chance at Lojban and Trekkie talk, so give it a rest. (The idea that logical communication would bring peace is an interesting SW hypothesis, though --- however much it flies in the face of the experience of logic society meetings.) pc ------------------------------------------------------------------------ GET WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE FREE!
