[edit] Too fond of Heinlein

This is worded just a little to fondly of the topic and Heinlein. Howdoesthiswo 07:04, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

"too". I have moved the NPOV tag to the section that warrants it.

In other criticism, the article quotes too liberally from the story, not excessively under fair use, but excessively for balance of too much reference and not enough explanation, context or discussion. For example, it should include discussion of constructed languages and Alfred Korzybski's concept of General Semantics, whom Heinlein admired and whose ideas he and A. E. van Vogt included in several of their stories. Nonetheless, this is a decent topic and a fair start. Hu 07:41, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

Personally, I like the way Mark Rosenfelder describes the issue in his Language Construction Kit. I'd support adding his point of view, likewise. What do you think?  –  Korako 14:12, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
