So, all the books you have to print for people to learn this comes free? All the hours people have to invest in it comes for free? I'm sure the farmers in India or Brazil would love to learn the language, so they could join chat-rooms and talk about agriculture ON THE PC THEY DONT OWN OR COULD AFFORD. All the new instructions that were in English, now have to be rewritten in Esperanto - and you think that is free as well?

It doesnt matter what language you speak, you can still communicate. I have installed systems in locations where people didnt understand a word I said.

The main reason behind Esperanto is like the old Latin - For the self-proclaimed intellectual and social elite to separate themselves from the uneducated.
