Off topic, but talking about recorded talks, it bugs me that there seems to be no recordings of this:
“In 1985, [Powell] Janulus entered into the Guinness World Records for spoken fluency in 42 languages. To qualify, he took a two-hour conversational fluency test with a native speaker of each language he spoke at that time. This testing took place over one month. Powell said that he considers himself skilled in 64 languages” - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powell_Janulus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powell_Janulus
That is recent enough that it could have been recorded on tapes or video and extraordinary and interesting enough to be worth it, but it doesn’t seem that it was.
