You specifically mentioned "Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Seas". As I assisted in certain ways, I know that Michael produced this from scratch, including gathering facsimiles of the illustrations from the original 1870 edition, and also a brand new translation into English. It's also the full work, not the heavily purged English versions we're used to, some of which omit 25% of Verne's original text (many editings being for political reasons, intriguingly), or cause scientific blunders that Verne didn't commit. I believe that 'Adro dhe'n Bys in Peswar Ugans Dedh", translated by Kaspar Hocking, was a new venture, too, with colour work to the cover being undertaken by another Agan Tavas member (told you we had talent). There are more new works to come. Enjoy!

As per Ray Chubb's self congratulation in Spellyans you have at at least 5 people in Agan Tavas, two in Ireland who publish and translate for you, one guy who makes pretty pictures, and someone else I think who stands around telling the world how wonderful they are.

And then there's Goky who has done diddly squat for the language. In fact his purile rantings on here have probably done harm.

Nice admission that you are "Goky". So, what was that about "intellectual capabilities", Reeves?
OK, now that he's made his slip: Chris – is this guy banned or not?

Don't worry I will be away for while, but at least I bought some debate to this site, and also the insecurities and intellectual laziness of many of the so call 'Traditionalists' on this site. Many of whom could not string together a sentence in Cornish if their lives depended on it. and even if they could , they would not be able to find a diacritic on their keyboards.
Now Truru go back to teaching to your class of one Late Cornish, Taran you can go back and study your GSCE's.

Yes, a mass debate. Where are you going? Alpha Centauri, perhaps? Further? I have a new class to run as well. And books to finish writing. Just examples of my 'intellectual laziness'.

One last thing before I leave, watch my blog for my new PDF file out by the year end. 'Secùnd lyver Redya', you will find it very informative, for children and adults alike.!

Original as always. Have you no new ideas of your own? (What did we all do to deserve this cretin?).
