True.  [Note that I was of the opinion that although they added
"color" to the page that since they were not being kept up to date
that they should be removed.]

They are not really live spoken languages.  Not like Google's
selection of languages that includes Klingon. :-)

That sounds like a wonderful idea.  I liked it so much that even
without further discussion and agreement I went ahead and made that

previous page may be restored easily from version control.

BTW...  I also noticed some broken anchor tags on that page and fixed
them in passing.
