A side note to my ramblings about Missouri enacting Amendment 1, which will only serve to put up barriers between people of different cultures, is the suggestion to promote Esperanto as a common language for global dealings. My father first mentioned it to me years ago and of course being a dutiful son; I told him I would look into it and promptly forgot about it.
A few weeks ago I was talking to a teacher from China who had done some traveling and he mentioned Esperanto. Thanks to my father I could actually tell him I had heard of it.
It is now on my "A" list of things to look into. Maybe my father may have something here; adopting Esperanto for global communication might be a good idea. What do you think?
