I first stumbled onto E-Prime as a student of the Russian language. It intrigued me that the Russian language does not actively use the verb for "to be".
I purchased the book, "To be or Not......" in 1991, and since then have tried to incorporate E-Prime into my English language speaking and writing. Not too successfully I might add! Finally I begin to explore again E-Prime and all of its facets, after many years of abstinence. This webswite I'll explore with much interest.
