Report in The Sun
If anyone's here as a result of reading this article, then welcome! Hope you stick around as it's an interesting language, I would agree with Ken Miner's opinion that it's 'a work of art'. Don't expect perfection, but it's really amazing just how functional and flexible Esperanto can be!

A certain member of this forum is mentioned on the article too (Hawkins, where are you?
), but maybe more lernu members are on there (EDIT: in fact, what am I saying one of the guys said he learnt EO thanks to lernu. Man I'm having a stupid day!)

Yep, that's the type of lead line we expect from tabloids, even on this side of the pond. Still, nice that they ran it.

I take great pride in my weird side (which happens to be nearly every side). Lynchie (User's profile) July 29, 2010, 10:22:24 PM
