I seem to recall it was 50 or so last year. The group photo shows (by my count) 42 heads; assuming the photographer was not hired, that makes 43, plus anyone who may have eluded the lens. From what I understand, 50 (approximately) is a more-or-less standard number of participants in the *biennial* Conferentia. (That was the figure quoted in the magazine "Esperanto" a decade or so ago in an article about Sergei Kuznecov, the Russian -- then-Soviet? -- interlinguist who used the Universala Esperanto-Asocio headquarters in Rotterdam as a base for doing business while he was attending that year's Interlingua conference in the same city.) >>From: Jeff Blakeslee <[log in to unmask]> >>Reply-To: International Auxiliary Languages <[log in to unmask]> >>To: [log in to unmask] >>Subject: Photos of the Interlingua Conference >>Date: Fri, 12 Aug 2005 09:37:02 -0700 >> >>Someone asked recently how the recent Conferentia International de >>Interlingua went ... >> >>Piet Cleij has posted photos at his site www.interlingua-nl.com . >> >>-Jeff >> >> >>--------------------------------- >> Start your day with Yahoo! - make it your home page > >-- Don HARLOW >http://www.webcom.com/~donh/don/don.html >Opinions (in English): http://www.harlows.org/don/opinions/ >Esperanto (in English): http://www.harlows.org/don/esperanto/ >Literaturo (Esperante): http://donh.best.vwh.net/Esperanto/Literaturo
