<p>Julian Neuer (<a href="https://corianderpause.wordpress.com/">https://corianderpause.wordpress.com/</a>) tells his short SciFi story "The Rosetta Dream", inspired by the writings of Steven Pinker and Jared Diamond.</p>
 <p>In the 21st century, the Rosetta Project produced a disk containing 13,000 pages of information about more than 1,500 languages spoken on Earth today and in the recent past.</p>
 <p>But what happens if the disk is found by our descendants in a very distant future where information is not transmitted by verbal languages anymore?</p>
