| 1122486 | 2010-07-26 12:06:00 | "a sign that few books were being written in Maori" Possibly because only a tiny percentage of the population wants to read or speak maori ??? Hey, if there was a market for it, someone would be exploiting it! I ROTFLMAO'd... :D |

| 1122487 | 2010-07-26 12:14:00 | And this in Maori Language Week? But then some want everyone to learn a version of Chinese as well apparently. Esperanto became a dismal failure too as I remember it. Large numbers leave school in New Zealand without being reasonably proficient in English also for that matter. |

| 1122492 | 2010-07-26 12:50:00 | PDF's count, right? OT: the art of intrusion is a great read! Nope. PDFs don't count at all although I read those as well. I could leave a book elsewhere for some other person to read but I would not want to leave my PC elsewhere or Laptop or Ebook reader or etc. I hope you get the idea. |

| 1122493 | 2010-07-26 19:11:00 | It’s quite odd isn’t it? :confused: The Maori kids Kids around our streets seem fluent in Anglo Saxon and have a substantial vocabulary of Anglo Saxon four letter words. They show little interest in the Maori language. :cool: |
