Languages are the life-blood of human communications, we are yet to fully understand the evolution of a language, yet to get to the 'root' of the spoken word. The death of the last communicators' of the Bo language is sad indeed, we are poor by 65000 years in losing out a chance to understand a living language. The Bo's were hounded to death like the displaced Native Indians of the US, sheer mis-understanding of their communication protocols and habits. Today is a sad day for a Tulu-speaking minority like me, the pain of having not learned enough about a language which was alive till yesterday. Language experts in the US should move forward to revive lost languages by harnessing the power of the computing machine.
