I find Esperanto to be an ugly language - I realise that this is just my personal taste, but I _am_ entitled to an opinion. I also realise that there are quite a few Esperanto hobbyists out there who would like to see their baby become the international language. I don't think it will happen, and therefore find these references to Esperanto to be an annoying irrelevance. I don't want to offend, but as I said, I am entitled to an opinion, especially as I fully support the general idea. Ron.
