Let me know if i should continue with this; my intent is to digitise and post all the Glasgow conversations eventually, but it'll be a long while. This tape was made under suboptimal conditions :-) ; it's the final day of the Glasgow Worldcon, the 'Dead Dog' party, and I'm already pretty hoarse. Our Lojban talk is interrupted by a bout of paper plate throwing, and the conlangers in our party spend the next 10 mins (at least) singing bad filk, lapsing into Klingon, and throwing paper frisbees. The female voice in the background is Klingonist Chris Atherton. What the lead in to my chat with Goran was, I don't know, but I transcribe it something like this (and yes, the talk has gotten pretty drunken; I vaguely recall this being a plausible parse --- Goran was claiming divinity over various implausible spheres, and I was humouring him.)
