Jim Lieberman informed me of James Fallows blog
entry on Zamenhof's 150th, a fallows-up to his
1986 article on Esperanto in the Atlantic Monthly:
Felica Naskotago, Dro. Zamenhof!

There's no real substance here, but also no
mockery, unless one takes one of the links
provided as mockery. It is, though, just a blog
toss-off, not a considered essay on the subject.
And publicity alone is good publicity. One can
rarely expect more than vacuity in the zombie
mass media world, even for a middlebrow audience.
If Fallows were to become more intimately
involved with Esperanto, would he perform Fallotio?
