Welcome to the Language Conference! Mark Unseen   Sep 3 23:17 UTC 1991

Welcome to the Language Conference!

One thing you may notice about this conference is that it is NOT called the
"Foreign Languages Conference" or "Languages Conference".  This is primarily
because most people on Grex do not speak more than one language, and to have
such a conference would exclude most of the people here.  This, of course,
would be counterproductive!

But never fear!  You have not just joined the "Languages" Conference, but
rather the "Language" Conference.  Whether you love it, like me, or hate it,
language is something that affects everyone, all the time, whether or not
you ever had Spanish in high school.  Without the use of language, there could
be no bbsing, for one thing, and none of us would be here.

This conference will contain one item for the speaking of every foreign
language spoken by Grex users.  Other items will be typed in English,
discussing issues in language that affect (and hopefully also interest)
everyone.  Don't be afraid to enter an item because you fear it's inappropriate
to this conference.  It probably isn't!

So let's use those language skills and talk to each other!

I think most of us love language *AND* like you.  :-)

Mister Craig, it has been a while.
