Anghel Dust

[davidn]

Today's episode is actually quite short, consisting mostly of a large discussion where we're basically reassuring ourselves that what we're seeing is in fact real.

I only got to take two levels of Latin in high school because I ran out of high school before I could get to the third level. I really wish I'd done more!

I was taught neither Latin nor the finer points of the construction of grammar... which made it more difficult to learn how any other language worked, really.

Somehow an awful lot of the human-types around me have this general instinctive recoil when confronted with strongly formal or abstract methods of almost any description. Mostly in mathematics, but language seems to count too. They have this sort of wishing they did more thing without ever actually liking it, whereas I always wished I did more and enjoyed it immensely but often don't have the resources to progress very quickly or steadily nowadays. I never really understood this!

(I don't know whether you fall into that category or not, from your note. I was just making a related general observation.)
