It is not really spoken > by anyone... I'm a lover of natural languages, not an Esperanto enthusiast, so I'll leave it to others to set the record straight, but I have a general comment. When a friend asks you a question that you're not sure of the answer to, it is natural to say, "Well, I THINK..." even tho there's a good probability you'll be wrong. The Net, with potential world-wide distribution and enormous numbers of readers, is no place for "well I think" answers to questions whose correct answers can easily be determined with a little research.
