Esperanto ekfuroras
ESPERANTO is enjoying a new lease of life following the release by
Michael Jackson of the most expensive film ever made in Hollywood
($30000 per second). The 3 1/2 minute film in Esperanto is part of a
promotional video for _HIStory_, Jackson's new double CD, which is due
for release next month and was filmed in Hungary earlier this year.
Interest in Esperanto has been compounded by the release of _Esperanto_,
a CD by German band Electric Music.
The international Esperanto Association is even claiming that the
English language is dangerous. A spokesperson said: "English is
unworkable as an international language and is proving dangerous as the
language of air traffic control."
The association has released a list of fatal air accidents caused by
misunderstandings arising from the use of English.

mi mia patri^co. Ri cetere aldonis: "The attached cutting from The
European suggests to me that the International Esperanto Association has
gone over the top a little in its desperation!"
Mi suspektas, ke tiu "International Esperanto Association" ne estas UEA,
sed pli ver^sajne EAB.
Jen la detaloj pri adresoj, validaj je 1994-09-26 (mi ne havas aktualan
