Now, I don't speak the language personally, but I'm sure there are a number of people here who could pick out just why I found this statement to be strange.

A/N: The language, S. speaks with his mother is Esterine's native language, Esperanto.

Again, I am mucking around before I have to go to work at 2pm for 2 hours. I am currently reading a rather bad looking fic, and I am debating giving it up for a) another fic b) filing my papers in my folder c) binding some old printouts of Tamora Pierce fics that I have.

I rather think it'll end up being a), but I will do c) today because the resource center closes at 4.30pm, and I finish work at 4.00pm. I will do b) sometime this week.

Esperanto v.1.0 published in 1887 by L.L. Zamenhof, Byalistok, Poland.

(If you were under the impression that it was invented recently, then you should probably come to one of our local meetings, where the average age seems to be pushing 80. It's highly depressing.)

I was under the impression that the average age of speakers has _always_ been high.
