I wish that group had a less inflammatory title than "English is=
stupid, I'm learning Lojban".

I can like Lojban without having to think that English is stupid,
can't it? That's like the irritating Esperanto advocates who say, "Don't learn <language>, learn Esperanto instead!" -- y= ou can learn
Esperanto *and* Lojban *and* English *and* <language>, can't you?=
