- Dear Scott, please don't say things like "technipions". English *is*
- something I know about (I have made my living from writing ever since
- leaving Cambridge in the mid seventies). If you really want to reach
- laymen, it might be a good idea to translate as much physics as you
- can into simple lay language.
-
- PS: Probably the wrong discussion group in which to ask this
- question, but has anyone heard talk about resurrecting Sanskrit for use
- as a 'computer language'? Now where could I have heard that?
