It doesn't have to replace your own language. Actually when it was big a lot of
stuff already had written instructions in Esperanto. English works fine yes....but
it's by far not universal. Now with the Asian markets that are on the rise it still
would be a perfect language to communicate.

There's more people that speak Chinese, Russian and Spanish than there are
who speak English.....of course most people in "civilised or prosperous" places
speak english.....but with Asia that's a bit different imho.
