Orange teeth.

There is a man in Brooklyn who is inventing a language. He came into the bookstore and spent a healthy amount of time browsing the language and linguistics section of the place. I had heard of him before, and I'm not sure of why it didn't occur to me that the man asking me questions about language books is the same man as is so notoriously interested in language. Well.

It's a color-based language. He gives lessons. Learning the language is supposed to help you spell English more correctly. I guess. Who knows?

I invented a language once. It was sort of time consuming. Plus I didn't do it alone. Plus it didn't have words.
