Fascinating. However, IMO, human language is nothing more than a vastly complex version of the vocalizations by which most animals communicate. And even human language, with all its complexities, loses some of its nuances when we can't see the physical gestures that accompany it. This forum or any other internet forum proves that, IMO.
