aronlevinku | Re: [LFN] Probably a common question

Thanks to everyone so far for answering my questions.  One person
mentioned that understanding "natural" languages is not the primary
reason to study LFN.

While I agree, I do think that it is important to highlight some bonus
features of the language, for example, the points I brought up.  If
you're trying to convince someone to learn LFN (or if they're trying
to convince themselves) it can be helpful for many people to know that
there are practical reasons to learn LFN, aside from the hope that it
may one day become the one well-established IAL.

sf, I like the fact that you actually chatted in LFN with a spanish
guy.  That must have been pretty interesting.  Was he very curious as
to what you were speaking?  Anyone else have any experiences like this?
