In defense of English

There is much barblefark in the English language today (and God knows in others as well).  Barblefark is not alphabetization (TIADI*), it is a filler language.  A verbosity with an emphasis on syllabled words.  It is repetitious.  I enjoy translating barblefark.  My translations are not a commentary on content, merely a clarification of it.

6. A creatively resourced, multi-functional dedicated team.

8. Willingness to take risk and see value in absurdity.
9. A well-defined yet flexible execution process.

2. A way to do it.
