Again, I think perception of this is distorted somewhat and largely
based on a set period of time a while ago - when I first joined this
list I posted short posts often thrice in a row, flooding the list
I'm sorry to say that this perception is created anew every week, as
long as this list is dominated by messages from you discussing your
principal stance ("theory") rather than actual achievements
("practice"). Especially the long and tiresome discussion of various
tongues from China seemed to be of very little practical use.
Whatever.
Also, it
doesn't take much time to write an e-mail, at least for me,
It still takes a lot of time, at least for me, to read all the
messages on this list. I wish there was more substance in them.
I'm also sorry to add to the impression that I'm only complaining.
So let me end by telling that last month I scanned a public domain
Finnish encyclopedia of 4 volumes and that more than 100 articles or
stubs from it have already been imported into the Finnish Wikipedia,
as shown by the category

So now not only are you complaining, but you're bragging? Great job,
Lars. Great job.
