~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In your article which I quote below you point out
the benefits of a single common auxiliary language
for Europe. I grant you that Esperanto has been
around for a long time. But there is an already
more workable solution with many supporters and is
easily accessible to everybody... check out this
URL http://www.interlingua.com/ for info on it.
Here is a sample...
Interlingua es un standardisation del linguas
romance e anglese e del vocabulario commun del
scientias e technologia. Apprende Interlingua!
For more information you can contact UMI the
Union Mundial pro Interlingua at the URL

TRANSCRIPT OF CNN HEADLINE NEWS, MON., 15 DEC. 1997
Peace on earth from CNN!
The news of the day, a world view from CNN.
Hillary Bowker, London:
"Overcoming language barriers has become a stumbling block for the
European Union, and that's why a language movement that began over a
hundred years ago is getting another look. CNN's Richard Blystone
reports:"
VIEWS OF EUROPEAN CONFERENCES
Richard Blystone:
"From the gargle at the back of a German throat to the 'oou' at the tips
of a Frenchman's lips, Europe is a tangle of tongues. The fifteen nation
European Union has eleven official languages and each utterance in one
has to be made intelligible to the other ten, lest there be
misunderstandings, VIEW OF WAR DAMAGE and nobody wants any more
misunderstandings in Europe.
VIEW OF MASSIVE PRINTING OPERATION
Interpreting, translating, checking, printing and reprinting, the European
Commission alone turns out eight hundred million pages a year. Wanted:
One Language for Europe!
VIEWS OF ESPERANTO CLUB IN LONDON
Well, the Esperanto Movement solved that one a hundred and ten years ago!
A solution to Eurobabble: "Esperanto" in Esperanto means "One who hopes"
and a century on, between fify and a hundred thousand worldwide idealists
are still hoping for this invented tongue to become the world's second
tongue.
DR. JOHN WELLS, UNIVERSITY OF LONDON
"I think it's an excellent candidate for the problem of solving the
European language problem, because it's an easy language that can be
quickly learned and if we really took it seriously, it would be a radical
change in the linguistic setup in Europe."
