No, not really -- but it's used a lot by the people
who use it. That's what makes it so interesting.

Esperanto was published in 1887. If your info is
only "decades" old, then you're more up-to-date than
a lot of people.
This past weekend, a shop owner heard me talking to
my daughter and asked which language we were speaking.
I said "it's called Esperanto", and he even knew
what it was. It happens from time to time, but is
always a surprise to me.

Better yet, check out www.esperanto.net or
www.esperanto-usa.org -- or punch "Esperanto" into
Google - and see for yourself.
